Groundbreaking for a new synthetic turf field at Summit High School’s Tiger Stadium is set for Monday — after a year of fundraising about $610,000 from local governments, businesses and residents.
“It’s going to be a real awesome asset for Summit County,” said Tom Looby of the turf steering committee.
“So many people have contributed to the effort. It’s just amazing.”
The field and a running track are to be ready for fall semester as part of phase I.
Summit School District kicked in an extra $200,000 toward the track's completion.
The ultimate $1.25 million goal — anticipated for completion next year — includes a synthetic practice field and bleachers.
