The fields are all mowed and the lines have been drawn but there is still no baseball or softball games being played at the Jackson Parish Recreation Department. Furthermore it doesn’t look like the summer leagues will begin any time soon according to Director Tommy Smith.

“We are ready to go as soon as we get the approval to do so,” said Smith. “Until the state directors for Little League and Dixie Youth give us the go ahead though there is nothing we can do.”

On a positive note the golf course located in Hodge is now once again open for play in a limited capacity. Playing rules state that only one person is allowed per cart and that there are no carts available for rent. It is asked that you call the pro shop at the course before you come to ensure a tee time.
