Spanning over fourteen acres along side an existing creek, Patchwork Farms Athletic Complex will provide athletic fields, walking trails, a playground, restrooms, concessions and gathering pavilions. There will be two large, lighted playing surfaces with a combined area over 350,000 square feet. This alignment allows for multiple field configurations and sizes, including four full-size soccer fields. The surface of these fields is tentatively planned to be all weather sports turf, allowing for continuous play under all types of weather conditions. The walk system envelopes the park while meandering past the fields, playground and pavilions and merges to join the walking trail following along the creek. Adjacent to the playing fields, younger children will enjoy the playground while their siblings play ball. Parking for the complex has been divided into two lots, each with a pick up/drop off area, to facilitate convenient access to all fields.
Plans are to break ground on the new facility in May and be playing soccer during the 2008/2009 season! The goal of the Club is to raise approximately 1 million dollars in support of the athletic fields. We are off to a great start, but we need your help! Steve Carroll and Mike Freeman are leading the Club's fundraising efforts for the new fields. To learn more about how to donate to the exciting future of our children, please contact Steve or Mike.
