The folks in Mt. Pleasant are organizing to let town council know there desires for scoccer space.
From MPSC:
A Recreation Committee Meeting has been scheduled to address the needs of soccer in Mount Pleasant. The meeting will be held October 1st at Town Hall, 6:30 pm.
Did you know that there are only 7 full size soccer fields in Mount Pleasant?
*The number of participants that will be served by those 7 fields in 2008 are 5,365*. Baseball/Softball participation for the year is less than 2,500 players, yet they have access to 20 fields.
The lack of field space is affecting Mount Pleasant soccer on every level. No training for Micro soccer, multiple teams sharing the same field and reduced practice times are all a result of the limited space.
The Town's current plan is to create a multipurpose field in Carolina Park composed of 4 baseball fields on which soccer can be played in the outfield. Mount Pleasant needs to create a single purpose, well equipped and lighted soccer training facility.
Take a moment to read the *attached information* regarding participation numbers, current facilities, issues and a proposed solution.
Remember to mark your calendar -- *October 1st at Town Hall 6:30 pm*. Be sure to encourage maximum attendance. It all starts with you.
