To honor the legacy of Commissioner Moss, the Miami-Dade County Board of County Commissioners has officially renamed the South Miami-Dade Cultural Arts Center to the Dennis C. Moss Cultural Arts Center. Commissioner Dennis C. Moss has been an advocate for the arts for many years and was instrumental in the building of the Center. He served as a Miami-Dade County Commissioner from District 9 from 1993 to 2020 and is a strong supporter of the arts. His leadership and advocacy were essential in creating the Dennis C. Moss Cultural Arts Center, which provides the community of South Miami-Dade with opportunities to experience national and international artists in music, dance, and theater. The renaming of the South Miami-Dade Cultural Arts Center to the Dennis C. Moss Cultural Arts Center was a fitting tribute to the contributions of Commissioner Moss. He understands the transformative effect that a new cultural arts center can have on the local economy and people’s lives, and this renaming is a testament to his dedication and vision.

After former baseball players Daniel LePera and Jason Mitchell opened the training facility in Worthington, Ohio, they soon saw an influx of baseball players seeking lessons and training.

This program has been helping players aged 8 to minor league level to reach their full potential. The Baseball Academy also offers strength and conditioning services to all ages and personal and group training for adults and teams. With an emphasis on daily training and practice, the academy has been helping players get one step closer to their goals.
