Little League fields suffer storm damage in Boone County

Two West Virginia Little League fields are dealing with storm damage. In Boone County, strong winds tossed bleachers onto the field at Boone Northern Little League and destroyed a dugout, leaving thousands of dollars in damage. League leaders estimate losses near ten thousand dollars. Just across the river in Kanawha County, Kanawha Central Little League lost its electronic scoreboard after it was ripped from the ground. Officials there say replacing it could cost around 7-thousand dollars, putting the upcoming season at risk. Both leagues say they’re grateful no one was hurt and are now turning to the community for support.
