Report of the Milford Athletic Field Committee
January 5, 1951.
To the Voters of Milford, Mass .:
The Milford Athletic Field Committee have had an active year although attendance at Fino Field games was somewhat disappointing during 1950.
Acting under authority of the March 1950 Town Meeting a system of night lighting was installed at Fino Field at a total cost of $17,344.04.
We had the expert assistance of the late Angus Mc- Kenzie, plus the co-operation of the Worcester Suburban Electric Co. and the contractor, Niro & Niro Co., and we feel satisfied that no money was wasted and that the field is properly lighted.
During the year 46 baseball and 8 football games were played, a total of 54 games of which 21 were under lights. A total of 28,322 tickets were purchased at the gate. This is a slightly lower average attendance per game than in 1949, probably due to an unusually cold baseball season.
The Annex was largely used for soft-ball games and for minor football games. This field allows two soft-ball games to be played simultaneously and each diamond was in use at least three evenings per week during the entire season, weather permitting.
281
Keeping Fino Field and the Annex, a total area of a little over 9 acres, mowed, lined, equipped, structures painted and in repair, grass alive and the entire area clean is more of a job than it appears to the casual observer.
We appreciate and offer our thanks for the assistance rendered us and the Town, by the other Town depart- ments and particularly by the Highway and Fire Depart- ments. Their co-operation has been a great factor toward whatever success we have had in the operation of these fields.
W. E. CORBETT, Chairman B. J. VITALINI, Secretary Milford Athletic Field Committee.
