Last night the Vancouver Park Board voted on the infield type: Commissioner Jas Virdi: Natural Grass Commissioner Scott Jensen: Natural Grass Commissioner Tom Digby: Natural Grass Commissioner Brennan Bastyovansky: Natural Grass It passed unanimously! The Commissioners all came to understand the importance of this project to the track and field community, and the great groundwork our sport has collectively put in place to capitalize on it - not just in Vancouver, but across BC and and across Canada. This was truly a team effort sustained over several months. Thanks to each and every one of you for your support. Special thanks to my fellow speakers last night: Caroline Wittrin (Kits High School) Megann Vandervliet (BC Athletics) Sophia Kostyniuk (Vancouver Olympic Club) Diane St Denis (Vancouver Field Sport Federation ) And Lillian Tom (VOC parent) for all her work behind the scenes and in person moral support last night. Thanks again to all of you who signed and shared the petition to show a groundswell of support!
