Support for the Memorial Park Project

"It would really be nice to have a year old soccer field."

"I support this petition"

"We live in the immediate vicinity of Memorial Park. Our three children play soccer with NTSC. We strongly support the idea of a safe surface to play on and welcome a turf surface for winter play."

"I support this petition"

"TFS, Upper Canada College, St. Michaels College, are fields never put under scrutiny. Where as public school fields such as Northerns Field of Dreams are battles lost. It is one thing to complain and another to do absolutely nothing when you have the powe"

"Sounds like a wonderful project"

"Having seen the "Field of Dreams" project at Northern lost firsthand, I would hate for this proposal to be rejected in turn. In life it is most important to stand up for what is intrinsically right and affect positive change, not to balk at it out of fear"

"I support this petition"

"I have two children who play soccer on that field and fully understand the poor shape the field is in. When an opportunity like this presents itself whereby the community will benefit from an upgraded facility at no taxpayer cost it is completely unfathon"

"I have reffereed soccer there for many years and it became almost impossible at time to see anything because of all the dust and dirt that was beeing kicked around everytime a plyer went to kick a ball."

"What could be more important than contributing to the health and enjoyment of our children, especially in their formative years."

"К"

"I have spent many days playing soccer on the field at Memorial Park and I cannot count the number of times that either a game has been cancelled because the field has been to muddy or a player has been injured because of the poor quality of the grass. Wit"

"children need a opportunity year round to play team sports and there is a shortage of venues"

"This is a win-win-win situation for aspiring players ,TDSB students and the soccer club and is the most reasonable approach with the state of the field and our Canadian weather."

"This week few people have used the park: some walkers on the track and a few dog walkers including me, mostly in the baseball area. If the field had artificial turf, it could have been in use today (november 8) even in the light rain, without interfering "

"As an NTSC coach we have to drive half way across town to train and play on a decent surface. Its a waste of time, it weakens the desire of the players to play (who wants to sit in traffic at 6 PM for 45 mins, and its bad for the environment."

"Compare the poor state of the playground at Deer park, and the vast improvement since the soccer field was added. This field will only improve Memorial Park. It may be more heavily used than before, but don't we want people to use our park spaces?"

"This would be a great facility for many groups to utilize over the years."

"I think this is an excellent proposal. Please note that the field condition of the existing Memorial Field are very poor. I am a soccer coach and have witnessed many minor injuries on that field and one broken collar bone due to the ruts in the field. Wit"
