Mike Burke, the new chief of the 320-acre Arizona Athletic Grounds – formerly Legacy Park, formerly Bell Bank Park – isn’t wasting any time after coordinating the facility’s purchase out of bankruptcy.
Burke is president of AZ Athletic Associates, the entity that bought the youth-sports facility with financial backing from Rocky Mountain Resources, a private investment company that specializes in natural resources and sports assets.
“I’m at the grounds today,” he said in a recent interview with the Tribune, “and I’ll be here seven days a week for the foreseeable future to build out a culture of excellence focused on the guest experience.”
