We would like to remind everyone that the new stadium field and track are currently off-limits to all unauthorized personnel. This area is still considered a construction site and poses potential risks. Furthermore, the synthetic surface requires a 45-day curing period before it can withstand regular use. It is crucial for the field's long-term durability and safety that everyone respects this temporary closure. We appreciate your understanding and cooperation in prioritizing the completion and optimal condition of the stadium. Thank you for your patience and adherence to these guidelines.
