I'm starting to obsess over the softball field that DD's team uses. Her organization got permission to use a local high school field, in return for maintainence (HS season is in the fall). The girls played on the damp field last night, after a rain storm on Tuesday. They raked up after themselves, but the field was still a little wet. I went out this morning to check on it and ended up raking the entire thing by hand (the tractor is currently broken so we can't spike it).
My back, legs, arms and muscles I never even knew I had are all hurting. Jogging just does not cut it. Rake a field - and eat your heart out, fancy gyms!
Any other stories/tips on field maintainence? Fields are in incredibly short supply around here - what is the field situation like in other areas of the country?
