News from the Field Campaign Chair
Have you ever wished you could be on a team where there were no speed requirements, no practices, and you could play as much as you wanted? Would you like to be on a team that helps people fulfill dreams of belonging, mastery, and victory?
The Field of Dreams at Dominican provides these opportunities and more. Our vision is an all-weather playing field in Forest Meadows where Dominican students and others can play soccer, lacrosse, and softball in every season for years to come. This will be a field to enrich student life and strengthen Dominican's ties to the community.
Of all the benefits of being on this team, the best is knowing that we will succeed. It is the certainty that when the first ball rolls out onto this field we will have produced a win for everyone involved. We hope you will join our team. We hope you will become a part of making this dream come true.
