Turf Maintenance Schedule

Part of keeping the fields and playing surfaces looking their best involves short-term closures to re-sod and repair fields from heavy use, and to aerate the soil to promote healthy turf. Some fields are also closed for overseeding in the fall. View a turf maintenance schedule for the three parks listed above.

Rules and Regulations

All forms of tobacco, alcohol, and drug use are prohibited on ACC property. Pets must be leashed at ALL times (except within the off-leash zones of the dog park).
