Bridgewater: Town Adds Kinsmen Field To Budget Talks

The future of Kinsmen Field in Bridgewater will be put to the test this spring. The town must decide if it will contribute money towards fixing drainage at the field in its upcoming budget. Mayor David Walker says that could cost upwards of $70,000.




The town already has $30,000 set aside for the work following last summer's Kraft Celebration Tour. Fixing up the field is part of a proposed three phase project which includes adding a storm sewer system on Oak Street to intercept water from flowing onto the field. The cost to do that is around $70,000. The three phase project could cost as much as $200,000 to complete.
