Synthetic turf grass can be used to create everything from safe, barrier-free play zones to athletic playing fields. And there is always a story behind every installation, and sometimes even a heartwarming one.
The Synthetic Turf Council announced last week it is hosting its annual Search for the Real Field of Dreams Contest. Established to recognize the positive influence artificial grass has on the lives of youth and the general public, the 2011 Search is now accepting nominations from the United States and Canada.
“More than 6,000 synthetic turf fields are open across North America, along with numerous parks, playgrounds and public installations,” said Rick Doyle, President of the Synthetic Turf Council. “Our Search for the Real Field of Dreams Contest aims to show what can be accomplished when people are willing to dream big.”
According to the announcement, interested students, coaches, faculty, parents and others who know of an amazing wholesale artificial turf field, park, playground or installation in their community can nominate an installation. All submissions must be turned in by June 15, 2011. A cash prize will be given to the winner and national finalists.
