Celina {Ohio} Tornado Updates/ Videos

The Damage from Sunday's {November 5, 2017} triple Tornado Outbreak in Mercer County and Celina is becoming more clear as the days pass....as far as Tornado Damage is concerned, ours is minor compared to large storms...it{the Celina hit} was however, as I mentioned yesterday, pretty amazing the path it took...almost exactly the same as the one that hit back in 2012...

Our Eastview Park/Montgomery Field Baseball Diamond, which is used by the High School, Wright State Lake, and the Celina Mariners, just received a $200,000 upgrade to the turf field ...  completed just 10 days before the Tornado...while the new turf may have survived{yet to be confirmed}, the visitor's dugout, snack bar, and press box, along with the home plate stands were pretty much totaled:

I have coached and umpired all levels at this field, well over 200 games in total, and to see this causes reflections on some of the games I have done, in both the dugout and behind the plate:

In addition to the damage there, the Havemann and Grand Lake Roads businesses, much like 2012 received plenty of damage....including the newly opened Sports Bar/Restaurant..."C~Town Wings" which just relocated from downtown this summer.

It probably won't be back to "normal" for a few weeks, but Celina, unlike most "Liberal/Shithole" Cities, won't be crying for Uncle Sam to rescue it, or blaming Bush or Trump for the damage...

back later...
