Bud Curran Keeps Cedar Rapids Memorial Stadium In Shape
Bud Curran, a 68 year old groundskeeper entering his 39th season at Memorial Stadium, maintains the field for Cedar Rapids Reds and Midwest League games. He has long worked with Thurmy Harris, relies on two Farmall Cubs tractors, and anticipates a new tarp to cover the infield. Curran values the chance to see players reach the big leagues, and he plans to stay active in baseball.
