Lighting Athletic Fields at Damascus Recreational Park Will Be Focus of Meeting on Tuesday, Oct. 24

Whether to provide lights on two ballpark diamond fields and a future rectangular field at Damascus Regional Park will be the focus of a meeting Montgomery Parks will be holding at 7 p.m. on Tuesday, Oct. 24, at Hallie Wells Middle School in Clarksburg. The meeting also will be available virtually.

Hallie Wells Middle School is located at 11701 Little Seneca Parkway in Clarksburg. To join the meeting virtually, go to MoCoParks.org/DRPLights.

Anyone who may be attending in person or virtually is asked to register in advance at mocoparks.org/DRPMeeting. Registration is optional.

Montgomery Parks states that planning guidance, minimal lighted field supply in parks system and community group requests indicate the need for lighted fields, especially in Upcounty areas. Parks staff will share details at the meeting, while also gathering input from residents.
