In 2020, when most sports events were canceled or modified due to the state COVID mandates, other outdoor events filled in the schedule at Glatfelter Memorial Field. Organizations were not able to hold indoor gatherings, so they held bingo fundraisers, memorial services, birthday parties, food distributions, and more at the field.
With sports returning to the fields and some mandates still in place, Glatfelter Memorial Field may be busier than ever. Individuals and organizations interested in using the field are encouraged to make reservations early.
Fees to use the facility help cover the basic expenses, such as mowing, removal of downed trees, water, electric, and insurance. Due to the age of some of the structures, some major repairs will be needed in the near future. Glatfelter Memorial Field is private property, and no municipal, county, or state funding is received to cover these costs.
To make a reservation, contact the Glatfelter Memorial Field Trust board at glatfeltermemorialfield@gmail.com.
