\n\t 
\n\tRochester, Minn. – The Northwoods League has agreed to the terms offered by the Bismarck, ND Parks and Recreation District for an “Agreement for Use” allowing for League play beginning with the 2017 season at Bismarck Municipal Ballpark.
\n\t 
\n\tThe ballpark Agreement is subject to the respective team or its affiliate completing a successful bid process for concessions operations at Municipal Ballpark and approval of the Agreement by the Parks and Recreation District Board at a meeting anticipated on October 15, 2015.
\n\t 
\n\t“I don’t want to jump the gun, but the League is very excited after exhaustive negotiations with the Parks and Recreation District, culminating with the agreement of Randy Bina (Executive Director, Bismarck Parks and Recreation District) to recommend the Agreement for approval to the District Board at its October 15th meeting,” said Dick Radatz, Jr., President of the Northwoods League.\n<\/p>\n
