Poway Girls Softball
is working to build four softball fields on Midland Road. The
fields will be built on city owned land which is located in the floodway
of Rattlesnake Creek. Due to floodway restrictions this land cannot be used
as a site for structures, but is ideally suited for use as ball fields or
other recreational purposes. Ample parking is provided on the site for use
by softball players and their families. |

The park that PGSL has proposed
is just that, a park. The look
and feel of the park will be very similar to Old Poway. The ball fields
have been designed to blend into the landscape to create an open, natural
feel. Concrete and other hard-scapes have been minimized and the areas between
fields are open and beautifully landscaped to soften the impact on the surrounding
area. |

 |
Included in the park are community
friendly features such as picnic benches, barbeque facilities, park benches,
meandering pedestrian trails and playground equipment. The
goal of the park is to provide a multi-use facility that can be used as
a community park as well as ball fields. |

There
are four softball diamonds which are placed to have the softest impact
on the park. In
addition there is a snack shack facility which includes restrooms, equipment
storage and a meeting room. The building was tastefully designed by well
known architect William Holcomb to blend into the Old Poway motif. Lighting
fixtures like the ones found in Old Poway Park will be used throughout the
park. |
