For awhile they didn't have the money but, I think, since that time, they've been pretty good for money. |
I think we managed to use the fields for about 10 years to about 2001 - something like that - when the school district decided that the land that they were going to give to (Mare Island Technical Academy) to build their school would be the place where we had the fields. |
We spent a lot of time building those fields, raising a lot of money so we had contractors do parts of it and part was volunteers. Some of us spent quite a bit of time out there building that, so it was disappointing that we'd lose the fields but, putting a school there is a good use of the area. |
