Chinn Chapel Soccer Complex Is Getting a Synthetic Turf Field

If you've driven past Chinn Chapel Soccer Complex lately and noticed the construction equipment, here's what's changing for your weekend schedule: a field is being converted to a synthetic turf multi-sport field, and the work is underway now.

Once complete, the field will accommodate soccer, football, and lacrosse. One surface, three sports communities. That matters when leagues are stacking up against each other for the same grass hours during peak season.

For anyone who has watched a rained-out Saturday wipe out a whole game day: synthetic turf drains faster and handles heavy traffic without the maintenance windows that grass requires. More usable hours per week, fewer cancellations. Short.

As the conversion wraps, check the Town's Parks and Recreation booking calendar. Once the field passes inspection, leagues can begin scheduling it — and the fall window doesn't last long.
