Site work and outdoor lighting for a playground / park / athletic field in Parkersburg, West Virginia. Conceptual plans call for site work for a playground / park / athletic field; and for outdoor lighting for a playground / park / athletic field.

The City's Public Works Department and Engineering Division have worked to develop a cost estimate to revitalize and modernize Bennett Stump Field at City Park. By investing in synthetic turf, new LED lighting, black vinyl fencing and new dugouts, the field will become a regional draw to facilitate a high level of High School, Collegiate and Recreational Baseball to the Mid-Ohio Valley. This project will increase visibility (and safety) for night games, lengthen the playable season, (both during inclement weather, as well as in the early Spring and Late fall) and allow our local youth teams to become more competitive with neighboring communities.Additionally, new fencing and dugouts will provide additional safety measures for players,spectators and park visitors alike. This project is in included in the City of Parkersburg FY 2021-2026 Capital Improvement Plan (CIP).
