Board approves $26,200 contract to renovate JV and varsity softball infields
Summary
The board approved a $26,200 contract with Midwest Athletic Fields of Watertown to replace infield materials and improve drainage on JV and varsity softball fields, with work planned this fall.
The Northland Pines board approved a motion Aug. 17 to renovate the JV and varsity softball fields to address drainage problems that have caused spring game cancellations. The board approved the project to be done by Midwest Athletic Fields of Watertown, Wisconsin, for $26,200. A district speaker explained the infields will be brought up to the same standard as the baseball field using a limestone-style quick‑pitch infield material to improve drainage.
Administrators said work is expected this fall so fields are ready for the next season. The motion was made and seconded; the board voted by voice and the motion carried.
