Jake’s Story

Jake’s Field of Dreams playground honors the life of Jake Vollmer. Jake was like so many other little boys who dreamed of growing up playing sports. However, at an early age, he was diagnosed with Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy.

The disease weakened his muscles but not his spirit. Knowing he would never play like his sports heroes, Jake became the greatest sports fan instead, cheering for those who played the games he could not. He wanted all kids to be able to experience the thrill of being a player. Jake passed away in 2012 at the age of 19, but his spirit lives on through Jake’s Field of Dreams, a playground that gives all kids the chance to be sports stars.
