Heindl gives back to DuBois with $250,000 donation to Challenger Field

DuBOIS — As a successful local businessman, Denny Heindl considers it his obligation to give back to the community.

So when he heard that a new state-of-the-art facility — the Challenger Field — was being built in the DuBois City Park to provide specialized athletic opportunities for those with special physical and mental needs, Heindl decided he wanted to be a part of this great cause.

Heindl, a Ridgway resident, said he is donating a total of $250,000. He donated $100,000 last year, $50,000 this year, and will give $50,000 in 2019 and $50,000 in 2020. He’s also giving $10,000 a year for forever to be used to maintain the field.
