Turf Field Construction Ongoing

Turf field at Jonathan Dayton High School comes closer to completion.

The artificial turf field at Jonathan Dayton High School is taking shape.

In September of 2012, ground was broken on the athletic field which represents a partnership between Springfield Township and the Board of Education. The artificial athletic field has been an active cause among Springfield parents for several years.  In 2012, the vision took a huge leap towards becoming reality when the Springfield Township Committee and Board of Education passed a “land swap” deal to offset costs of the  $3.4 million project.

The Board of Education is in charge of oversight of the field construction. Over the past few weeks, light poles have been installed and bleachers and the concession stand are on-site but not complete.
