Report Inappropriate Comments

Not meant as sarcasm: was the school department aware that the fields were being used by NEFL? Did you call to ask them? Or was there an assumption that the fields would be kept up? If the School Department is going to let non-Warwick School entities utilize the facilities, they should, at least, have a point of contact available for quick action in cases such as this. I have experience with the city-side from my time helping to run a local soccer league. We had our issues too, but eventually things smoothed out once we established a stable line of communication between the league and the Parks and Rec dept.

It's also a bit unfair to write "I genuinely, whole-heartedly understand why these field may not be maintained the way that they are during the regular school year" given the budget issues and then offer the purely conjectural "what I see here is just another example of the school department ignoring the needs of another one of its schools."

Finally, regardless of these criticisms, thanks for writing in depth about these issues.
