Opening Ceremonies on Tap for New THS Field

Artificial turf and lights are being installed.

Opening ceremonies for the new field at Tolland High School have been scheduled for Sept. 20. 

The event will be in conjunction with a football game against Rocky Hill scheduled for 6:30 p.m. 

The current sports complex at Tolland High school is being converted to an all-purpose artificial turf field with lights. The nearly $1 million project is being touted as a collaborative effort between municipal and school system officials. The bill is being footed by state grants and private donations, town officials said. A portion of the cost was bonded.  

The festivities are to include pre-game and halftime ceremonies and a formal ribbon-cutting ceremony.  

More details on the program will be forthcoming, town officials said.
