Mason County Recreation Area Renovation
Description:
This project will provide funding to improvement to Mason County Recreation Area Park (MCRA) near the City of Shelton. MCRA is a 30 acre sports complex with seven baseball - softball fields. The complex is used by the City of Shelton, youth leagues, Shelton School District, and various tournaments throughout the summer. The facility is also used by the Mason County Youth Soccer Association in the fall at times. MCRA was developed in the late 70's and has not had any significant improvements since that time. As a result, much of the park infrastructure is in need of development and renovation. This project will address important needs for the park including replacing gravel areas with asphalt for improved ADA access and improving existing entry paths, renovation of park restrooms, installation of field lighting on fields #2 and #3, upgrade of field irrigation with computerized controls and new sprinkler heads to improve water coverage and also to improve water conservation, and replacement of bleachers with new bleachers that are ADA compliant and meet newer safety standards. MCRA recieves both local play from the various youth leagues in the Shelton area and also draws many Regional and State level tournaments. MCRA is one of the County's highest used facilitiies, the other is Sandhill Park in Belfair, the County's other seven field athletic complex.
