HEARTWELL FIELD RENOVATIONS

We are pleased to relay that fields used for LBYSO at Heartwell Park are due to undergo a major renovation.  Here is an excerpt from the approved LB Public Works document:

The Project is designed to increase irrigation efficiency and improve landscape
maintenance by implementing an automated, weather-based watering system, upgrading the existing irrigation pumps, and replacing irrigation lines, sprinkler heads, and damaged turf grass and sod. These changes will greatly improve the condition of the field, make maintenance more manageable, and are expected to reduce water usage.

One drawback, is that while the Spring 2019 season will proceed as planned, practice and game locations will likely be impacted by the project. We are in regular communication with the Parks & Rec Dept and details will be provided as they become available. Completion is expected by the start of the Fall 2019 season.
