Southside Little League coach Roy Ortiz hopes to raise $10,000 on a GoFundMe page to clean up the field, replace damaged equipment, and rebuild the team's concession stand that was destroyed in the flood.
The campaign for the Bethlehem-based league raised over $500 as of Sept. 10.
"Blood, sweat, and tears went into our beautiful park and within a few hours we are back to square one," Ortiz wrote.
"The water reached higher than we planned for. It moved bleachers and filled most of the fences with TONS of debris."
"We are completely heartbroken by the devastation but we are Southside Little League and we will come back stronger than ever," he added.
