Mark Macdonald always had a love for baseball. Growing up, his family owned a restaurant and golf course in North Bend, Wisconsin, which gave him familiarity with athletics and hospitality. As he explored his career options, he was attracted to the idea of purchasing a baseball team. His search led him to Wausau’s Athletic Park, home to the Wisconsin Woodchucks, one of 20 teams in the summer collegiate Northwoods Baseball League.
