ST. LOUIS PARK OPEN NEW SEASON WITH A NEW FIELD

St. Louis Park High School opened the 2012-2013 sports season with a new athletic field. Before they put down the new turf the field would only be used for Varsity games and graduation.

No sports teams, P.E. Classes or the community could not use the field. If there was poor weather events would be canceled or rescheduled because of poor field conditions.

Lots of support from the community. Pushing for a while. 15Years participation has grown. More kids less space.

The Athletic Director noted that St. Louis Park, The University of Minnesota Gophers practice field and Minnetonka all have the same type of surface. He also mentioned that the field has, “Been used more this season that all of last year. The project also came in under budget and it was school board supportive.” “Lots of support from the community. Pushing for a while. 15 years of sports participation has grown. More kids less space.”
