Just over a year into the school district’s CiCo Park improvement project, officials say they are on track for an August completion.
BHS Construction project manager AJ Devlin on Wednesday told USD 383 school board members that Phase 2 upgrades to the district’s sports facilities at the park are going well.
The upgrades include four new turf ballfields, eight tennis courts, and a track and field throwing area that will include two discus rings with sectors, two shotput rings and a javelin runway.
At the ballfields, turf is going down, Devlin said, and workers are installing overhead netting to protect fans. The four fields consist of a primary and secondary softball field and a primary and secondary baseball field. Nearby will be a warm-up area with batting cages and pitching lanes.
