Throughout the years since the Wayne Underwood Field Management Committee has taken over the
field, the group has upgraded many things with the help of local volunteers, a Change the Future grant, and
the Calhoun County Commission.
There are many events at the field (the former Calhoun High School field) The walking track
is utilized frequently. The Grantsville Farmer's Market is held there during the summer months.
Some of the little league youth football teams play or practice on the field. We also have softball players
during the summer either practicing or teams playing.
The lower practice field was used this year
for a Mud Bog during the Wood Festival.
Beginning this week, the field is being using for the All-Star Youth League Football practice. The
practices will be on Tuesday and Thursday evenings for the next couple of weeks.
The Calhoun Youth
Football Committee has helped tremendously in numerous projects at the field, including help getting the
All-Star Practices held there.
This committee has brought the concession stand up to
Health Department standards and went above and beyond to help the sports youth in the community.
The Wayne Underwood Field is a great place for our community to utilize in many different ways and
the Wayne Underwood Field Management Committee welcomes everyone to use the field.
