There was a time way back in 2007 when McHenry County College’s Board was considering putting the taxpayer on the hook for about $26 million to build a minor league baseball stadium.
This was at the behest of then-President Walt Packard.
Besides the fact that college administrators figured out a way to keep virtually every detail of construction out of the reach of Freedom of Information requests, the lifespan of a minor league baseball team averages five years.
The bonds were to run twenty-five years, I believe.
It was a really bad deal, as this article outlines.
Coming home from Springfield’s Old Capitol Air Fair we passed a junior college minor league stadium that got built.
The Corn Crib opened in 2010 as part of Heartland Community College.

The Northwest Herald editor also promoted the building of a baseball stadium.
