Summary

Committee members discussed a Boyle athletic field grand opening and recommended a Sept. 17 date for a community celebration and ribbon-cutting; members asked for a field usage and advertising policy to be finalized before the event.

The Sheffield City Committee discussed plans for a formal grand opening of the Boyle athletic field and recommended a date in mid-September when school is in session.

Committee members suggested Sept. 17 as a preferred date for a ribbon-cutting or celebration that would include plaques recognizing the original building committee. Speakers recommended combining a civic dedication with a broader community celebration, including Sentinel-themed merchandise and fundraising opportunities (brick sales and advertising) tied to the field. One original building committee member urged a formal dedication marking the closure of the project and recommended an earlier, 4 p.m. ceremony followed by other events.

Committee members requested a completed field usage and advertising policy before scheduling the public celebration, saying the policy is needed to govern future rentals, signage and revenue. Staff said a draft fee and usage policy was in the portal and would be on the next meeting agenda. The committee discussed dates and agreed the Sept. 17 timeframe likely offers the best opportunity for community attendance and to coordinate an Old County Road School open house that evening.

No formal motion to set the date was recorded; staff said they will coordinate details and circulate options to committee members and the original Boyle committee.
