Memorial Field Renovation-2008
- Status
- Funded in 2009
The Skagit County Parks and Recreation Department will use this grant to renovate a softball field at Skagit Playfields. The field has deteriorated and it is usable fewer weeks a year. The county will install a new drainage system, fencing, backstops, and dugouts, and try to rehabilitate the turf. The renovation will result in fewer missed games, a better playing environment, and fewer maintenance costs. Skagit Valley Playfields host a number of tournaments that annually draw more than 200 teams as well as youth camps and league games. The non-profit Skagit Valley Softball Association has contributed financially to the project. The county will contribute $128,500 in cash, labor, and cash donations. (08-1299)
