The Village of Obetz, OH has rolled out the red carpet for us. They are working closely with us to make sure our event is the most successful it can be! They are doing everything from getting the word out in the local community, lining fields and providing concession services. The Mayor and City Manager are both very committed to making sports available to young people. They (unlike many politicians these days) follow up their words with decisive action. You will meet them on the weekend and make sure to thank them for their work.
Although this picture does not do it justice, the pitch is beautiful with permanent posts and a gentle grade for maximum drainage. The grass is plush and ready for championship rugby.
Above is a map of the area. Unfortunately when the google satellites flew over the park, they had not yet completed the construction, so this is my poor artistic rendering.
The following is the schedule of events. Bring the family, friends, extended family, neighbors, co-workers or people you don't even know to watch exciting rugby action all weekend! kurt@rugbyohio.com for more information or questions.
