Covedale Elementary - A New Youth Field

Back to Covedale Elementary in the Western Hills area of Cincinnati.  The project at this site is very basic.  Install a coaches pitch/t-ball infield for the school.

To see the first post which describes the layout, click HERE.

After the layout of the field was complete, the bulk of the project started.

First, the existing grass and topsoil that existed on the new infield was removed to a 4 inch depth, stockpiled and removed from the site to be stockpiled.  The sub base was then laser graded to ensure a consistent 4 inch depth.





Next, 150 tons (3 1/2 inches) of a local infield mix from Alvis Materials was added, laser graded and rolled.



This work completed day 1 of the project.  Day 2 and the completion of the project will be detailed later this week.
