A Note About Wolf Swamp Fields:
In the spring of 2019, Town residents voted to borrow $1,541,000 for the renovation of the Wolf Swamp athletic fields. These fields are the most widely used Town athletic fields and see over 10,000 visitors each year. Members of the general public as well as youth sport leaders have attended a series of three publicly posted meetings for the last several months to discuss and develop a design plan that meets the needs of our community.
Construction is currently underway. We hope to have the initial phase completed by the end of December. Please stay tuned for more details.
