Rosendin, Graybar Donate Lighting to Mesa Community College

New lights introduce night practice to local baseball facility

Employee-owned electrical contracting company Rosendin, with a regional office in Tempe, Ariz., partnered with Graybar, an electrical distribution company, to install free lighting components at Mesa Community College's baseball facility. This donation gives local players access to lighting in the batting cages for the first time in the school’s history, allowing players to practice after dark.

The baseball facility at Mesa Community College previously had no lighting equipment. When contacted for an estimate on the project, the team at Rosendin surprised school officials by donating their time and services to install the wiring, conduit, light switch, and lights, which were donated by Graybar. Rosendin’s skilled trade workers completed the project on Feb. 18th, 2022, giving local college players the opportunity to use the facility and practice after dark.

“Rosendin is proud to build this lighting project that supports Mesa Community College and gives future baseball stars more time to practice at the facility," said John Burton, Rosendin project executive. “We enjoyed partnering with the team at Graybar because they share our commitment to giving back to our local community.”

Jim Carrol, a representative for Graybar, said: “Graybar is grateful for the opportunity to work with Rosendin and the community to bring lighting equipment to Mesa Community College. We would like to thank everyone involved in this project for the collaboration and support to achieve the final product.”
