District to install turf field at Old Mill Road with Little League donation
Summary
Facilities staff said the district will install a turf field at Old Mill Road, coordinated with Bellmore Merrick Little League, and expects a shorter construction timeline since a field already exists; weather remains the primary schedule risk.
Facilities staff reported that the district plans to install a turf field at Old Mill Road, aided by a donation and partnership with Bellmore Merrick Little League. The staff member explained the work should be easier than a full rebuild because the existing field footprint will be used, but added that weather could pause construction if there are winter storms.
"Very excited to announce that we'll be installing a turf field at Old Mill Road," the facilities speaker said, adding that safety fences and a gate on the Meadowbrook side will help separate construction from student activity and that the district will coordinate with the Little League on a donated second field. The speaker estimated the work could be about a two-month project if weather cooperates but cautioned that winter storms could cause delays.
