Recreation Working Group welcomes your participation in a public meeting to
discuss the current condition and possible future improvements to our core
recreational fields and facilities.
The Town has hired the
firm of Weston and Sampson to complete a Master Plan to help guide capital
planning. Weston and Sampson will share their assessment of the fields used for
football, baseball, ultimate, field hockey, softball, lacrosse, and other sports.
The plan will address the War Memorial pool and playground area too. This work
will also include an analysis of demand and use of fields and outline general
standards and design considerations when updating recreation facilities.
The meeting is the first
in a series of public discussions as we gather data and community input on
these important recreational assets. The Master Plan for fields and facilities
at Community Field, Amherst Regional High School, Middle School and Wildwood
School to be discussed.
We encourage students,
parents, coaches and representatives of Amherst sports teams and leagues to
join us for this meeting.
