RESIDENTS & PROPERTY OWNERS COMMENTS
Ledyard Little League (Brian Love) asked when fields will be open and if there are any planned
projects that will prevent field play. Fields are planned to be ready April 1. Fertilizing will be
planned around the weather, as rain is required. Normal field maintenance is planned and will
require 48 hours of field rest after. League asks for notification so they can plan when to play.
There are over 300 registered for Little League this year.
