Cleanup volunteers sought for Salem Field of Dreams

If you missed last week’s Field of Dreams cleanup, relax knowing that spring cleaning is a week late this year.

Plans for the annual cleanup of the Field of Dreams park on Saturday, April 5, were postponed another week due to the prolonged winter and lingering wet weather, according to Ross Trecartin, president of the Field of Dreams board of directors.

“We still have snow on the ground and a lot of puddles, and there’s a lot of rain forecasted throughout the weekend,” he said.

Anyone interested in participating in the cleanup at the Geremonty Drive park in Salem is encouraged to show up on Saturday, April 12, from 8:30 a.m. to 12:30 p.m. Bringing your own rakes, tarps, gloves and leaf-blowers is appreciated, and lunch will be offered free to those who help out.

Since Field of Dreams is a community park supported by a nonprofit group, Trecartin said spring and fall cleanups held each year with volunteer support are vital for its opening.

Trecartin said this year’s summer concert series has already found a few sponsors, and park organizers hope to incorporate a Fourth of July event to coincide with the planned high school fireworks.
