Alpine Services, Inc. - Featured Fields

Field Name: Goddard Field and Prindle Field
Client: The Landon School

Alpine designed and built two sand cap soccer/lacrosse fields for the school. This included grading the sub-base, installing custom drainage and irrigation, installing sand and sand amendments, and then compacting the sand by various means, regarding the surface, and installing bluegrass sod.

These fields with stand the play of this school's 28 teams and have proven to have an all weather capacity. One of the two fields has the surface reinforced with Turf Grids. The school became the talk of its leagues when these fields went into service.
