Last month, people sat in the west end zone and gazed eastward to watch the field be installed and the sports complex gain its complexion. Lewis Field has an asphalt base. On top of that is a one- inch cushion of course rubber with pebbles in it. On top of that is the turf. On top of that, a coat of rubber filling.
Some work remains, however.
There is still a break-in period. The early returns on the field have been favorable. I'm anxious to see how it's going to hold up. It captures your attention. Now maybe people think we can get things done.
