Status
Funded in 2007
WWRP Applicant: City of Auburn WWRP Category: Local Parks WWRP Grant: $300,000 Applicant Match: $1,040,498 Project Type: Development County: King  Legislative District: 31st 

Auburn will use this grant to renovate two fields at Game Farm Park into fields with synthetic turf. The fields, built in the 1980s, are below standard and non-performing. Renovations will include removing the existing field surface, re-grading the site, adding a drainage system, installing new turf and paving a perimeter trail. Installation of two turf fields will improve play and safety and allow more use. With the new design, the fields will provide up to four times the hours of available playing time. Auburn will contribute more than $1 million in donations and grants. This was the top ranked project of 69 competing for funding in the local parks category of the Washington Wildlife and Recreation Program.
