Wymore OKs use of McCandless Ballfield for Sam Wymore Days fundraiser; park board seeks sand volleyball court groundwork
Summary
The council approved use of McCandless Ballfield on July 23 for a Sam Wymore Days fundraiser and discussed a park board request to install a sand volleyball court, contingent on a lease amendment with the school and the city performing groundwork.
The Wymore City Council voted May 15 to allow the Sam Wymore Days Committee to use a side of McCandless Ballfield on July 23 for a fundraiser, contingent on follow-up on logistics such as parking and confirmation of insurance.
Angela Meyer, representing the park board, said Shannon Burgess requested construction of a sand volleyball court. Meyer said the volleyball team would cover poles, net and maintenance; the park board requested the city pay for groundwork. City staff indicated the city would excavate, haul off dirt and haul in sand if the school provides an amendment to the lease that authorizes the change.
Max Allen moved to allow use of the ballfield for the fundraiser; Sue Sapp seconded and the motion carried 4-0. The council recorded that details would follow regarding the exact footprint and parking arrangements. The meeting adjourned at 9:01 PM.
