HYAA operates youth baseball and softball in central Orange <br /> County and has a limited number of fields for current and short-term future use. <br /> Staff has adjusted the HYAA agreement, with the organization's <br /> concurrence, to allow for Friday, Saturday and Sunday open play on the <br /> baseball field at Fairview. Staff has also identified foldable soccer goals that <br /> Orange County Department of Environment, Agriculture, Parks & Recreation <br /> PO Box 8181, Hillsborough, NC 27278 <br /> Phone: (919) 245-2510 <br />
