BALLPARK HISTORY MADE

2009, our 4th year of operation at the Double Angel Ballpark, was the first year that ball was played each month of the year. It began on January 11, 2009 with a practice by the Rocky Mountain Armour and ended on December 19th with a practice by the Crush Softball Team. Weather in Colorado isn't usually so cooperative to playing ball!!!

DOUBLE ANGEL BALLPARK OPENED IN JUNE OF 2006

The Grand Opening Day on June 3rd of the Double Angel Ballpark was a huge success, thanks to all the sponsors, volunteers, participants and baseball teams who gave their time and resources on this special day. The spirit of Dillon and Logan Dixey, and their love of "America's Game," will live on in this state-of-the-art facility to be enjoyed by baseball fans for generations to come. About 1000 people filled the stands and the grounds for the opening day celebration.

Carbon Monoxide Danger Awareness

See the Carbon Monoxide Archives page above

The idea to create a place for more youth to play the game of baseball, such a part of their familiy's life, was a way to channel the grief for Ken and Bambi Dixey, of Parker, Colorado, who tragically lost their sons while on vacation. Thus, Double Angel Foundation was born. The community rallied around the cause and opened their hearts, wallets and resources to build this incredible ballpark to be enjoyed for generations to come. The June 3, 2006 opening of the Double Angel Ballpark is proof positive that good can come from loss, and it also shows what can be done when people team up for a common goal.

The building of the ballpark and this is just the first two of a planned four field state-of-the-art complex, became a labor of love for not just the Foundation, but for the Parker area, Denver and beyond. About 1500 volutneers and supporters, representing families, businesses and organizations, along with the Dixey family, all generously contributed to the baseball complex. The land has been leased form the Parker Water and Sanitation District. The 2 completed artificial turf baseball frields are for age 13 and up baseball. Local baseball teams, as well as those coming from throughout the western states, have played at the park. More than 700 games and activities are being played in 2007.

The Foundation has also worked diligently on increasing awareness of the dangers of carbon monoxide in the boating industry, and recalls to faulty designs and CO free generators have been developed. While progress is being made, people are still being overcome by carbon monoxide on boats each year, including the first death on Lake Powell in 5 years occuring the summer of 2007.

Support to continue our cause, and to maintain and complete the ballpark, is still needed. More information about the Foundation or the ballpark can be found at www.doubleangel.org or at 303-841-2420.

Our Mission

A child's dream soon becomes our future. Nurturing these dreams, however great or small, is the key to building a world where achievement knows no limits. The Double Angel Foundation is dedicated to guiding children in the fulfillment of their dreams through the joy of recreation and the love of “The Game".

It is our vision to construct and maintain a baseball complex to serve our expanding community, where youth can share team spirit and a full sense of accomplishment. Our purpose is to enhance self-esteem, while fostering good sportsmanship, leadership and citizenship through team play. In addition, our intention is to develop special needs programs and offer scholarship opportunities. At the forefront of our efforts will be the need to provide ongoing awareness of the dangers of carbon monoxide poisoning.
