Reach for your Dreams!


Ambray Gonzalez Sculpture
2002


 This monumental carved limestone pillar is located at the entrance to the baseball fields of the
 Montopolis Youth Sports Complex.


 Every aspect of this sculpture portrays a different meaning. The front illustrates children diving to catch a ball, swinging at a ball, diving towards a base, and reaching high to catch a ball. The message is simply to try your very best during each play in baseball. To the left, an Aztec figure is shown adding cultural heritage to the Montopolis community. As the first encounter of the park, this pillar is a reminder to try our best and reach for our dreams.
