DATE: August 2, 1993 <br /> TO: Tom Dario <br /> c/o Park & Recreation Department <br /> FROM: Bill Bisek <br /> Kelly's Korner, Inc. <br /> RE: Ball Fields <br /> I would like to thank you for allowing us the use of the ball fields. In <br /> consideration for allowing Kelly's Korner to use the two ball fields at Central <br /> Park, we have assisted with some of the maintenance of the ball fields. <br /> On May 18, 1993, I had 50 ton of ball field aggregate delivered to the ball fields <br /> and then spread out and graded with a bobcat. The value of that would have been <br /> $270.00. On July 12, 1993, we did a late spring chemical application. This <br /> consisted of fertilizer, iron, sulfur and Trimec herbicide for Broadleaf weed <br /> control. This has a value of $440.00. On July 30, 1993, we assisted in the <br /> preparation of the ball fields for the Fet -De -Lacs Tournament. The value of <br /> this is $400.00. <br /> In the future, there are many things that should be done maintenance wise to <br /> keep these fields in good playing condition. <br /> I recommend three different chemical applications a year. One in early spring, <br /> late spring and early fall. Also, once annually, I recommend aerification to <br /> the outfield turf. As far as the infield goes, next year I would like to see <br /> a minimum of 50 ton of ball field aggregate applied to each field and a stock- <br /> pile nearby to be used for special events. <br /> In my opinion, the fields are in pretty decent shape and if the suggestions <br /> are followed, the fields will even be better and attract even more use. <br /> Thanks gain, <br /> William J.
