What we are doing
Our Goal
PAVE THE WAY TO LASTING MEMORIES
Become part of our school’s story in a meaningful and lasting way by purchasing a personalized memorial brick. Each engraved brick is more than a name—it’s a tribute to cherished memories, honored loved ones, and the shared pride of our school community. Placed along our walkway, these bricks will stand for years to come, celebrating the people and moments that matter most while helping support the future of our students. Leave your mark, honor a legacy, and help us build something that will inspire generations.
For your donation, we will personalize your limited edition section of the walkway at our future location of the ball field across from Swanton High School.
This program offers you the chance to honor family, friends, mentors, sports teams, clubs, organizations or businesses by purchasing a personalized brick paver.
Best of all, every brick is carefully created by Sara's Garden in Wauseon Ohio
Through their work-study program, students design, engrave, and paint each memorial brick using our laser equipment—gaining valuable hands-on skills, real-world experience, and pride in craftsmanship. Your tribute not only leaves a lasting legacy, but also helps provide meaningful learning opportunities that prepare our students for the future.

About Swanton Baseball/Softball Brick Fundraising Campaign
Swanton Local Schools, in cooperation with Swanton Athletic Boosters, is seeking donations to build their own baseball and softball fields on school property instead of playing at the local village park where they have played since the inception of the programs. Those fields are in dire need of upgrades to meet the minimum league standard.
Phase One is currently under construction and will allow our Baseball & Softball teams to play ball this Spring.
Phase Two will begin as funds come in to help purchase batting cages, bleachers, parking lot and other necessary items to make our fields great.

Would You Like to Support This Campaign at a Larger Level?
We are currently looking for a corporate sponsor to name the complex. We have opportunities to name each individual field and are looking for tax-deductible contributions.
We are also always looking for ideas for other ways to support this project.
