We, the residents of North Vancouver and members of local sports organizations, petition the City Council to approve the proposed artificial turf playing field at the Sutherland Secondary School site. The City is in need of more all-weather playing fields and Sutherland is an ideal location. The joint-use of the field will help local youth sports organizations, school sports, as well as adult sports.
I have been hearing so many stories from families about the struggle to find field time in our neighborhood lately. It is clear that this need is much deeper than I originally realized when I first put this request together. Thank you for showing me that we all feel the same way about our community space.

I am truly stunned by the momentum this is gaining. It turns out that when people care about a common goal, things really can change.

My son plays soccer and they have been practicing in mud for years. This would be a huge help for the whole community.

We need this field bad. Turf is the only way to go in BC if you want to play half the year.

Sutherland is the perfect spot. Easy to get to and it would get tons of use from the school and the leagues. Get it done.
