Ripken Design has been awarded the 2009 "Good Growth" Award by the Baton Rouge Growth Coalition.

Ripken Design worked alongside architect Bani, Carville and Brown, AIA on the design of the facility, which was built by a team of Deumite Construction, Munie Greencare and Pedigo Construction.

The award is a testament to Ripken Design's working philosophy that sports facilities can be engines for growth and community improvement for areas throughout the country and meets their mission of "Growing the Game of Baseball Worldwide."
