Metro North Park has a clubhouse
with a concession stand and restroom facilities. The fields do not have bleacher seats, so spectators should
bring chairs. This is a private facility and has a "no pets" policy.

near field 4. There are several parking spots reserved for handicapped
access adjacent to the turf field. We ask everyone to set a good example for

The business park is private property, and your vehicle could be towed if parked there.
