I would say at this time, it would be on the practice field.

I just received a text saying construction will begin within 10 days on phase one of the putting turf on "The Ship".  I believe the guy that texted me so we'll see if they start within 10 days and finish before the first home game.

Good luck getting that completed in 2 months. Not saying that it can't be done, but even if they started site prep today, I would be very surprised if the new field is ready for the first home game.

" Open to the general public public." This means the field can be used by any team or organization in the area, not just Oak Ridge? Maybe rename field/stadium "Pandora ' s Box"

Turf installation normally takes 60 days. This will be interesting.

No doubt it's a tight window. Always the option of working under the lights or moving the game(s) to opponent's field.

Very interesting. With such a tight window, it might be advantageous to just perform the installation in the spring of 2019.

Geez! Don't give 'em any ideas.

All text...NO ACTION!

Hey don't shoot the messenger  I will wait to see it started before I get excited though. Still don't trust the city officials. They usually speak with forked tongue.

Would like to see turf at The Ship. Some schools are ready for an upgrade turf field and OR is still mowing the field
