Fields – we have enough for 16 teams

  • So far, only 12 interested
  • Twin Rivers & Henry M. Jackson Fields in North Everett will need to be utilized
    • Eric – parking $ at Twin Rivers? Yes – the idea is that it will eliminate the extraneous usage of the parking
    • Abe – City of Arlington is waiting on us to tell them what we need for field usage
    • Kimi – Stay safe, if you see something, SAY SOMETHING. Call 911 on your own; don’t ask a coach or commissioner
  • Klein will not be utilized
  • Henry M. Jackson maintains fields, so it does cost a little more $ ($40 per game? By hour?) some of that cost includes the use of lighting
  • We did look into MPHS, but calls were not returned
