RISD Restricted Use of Field Turf AreasThe district is closing to the public both of its high school stadiums and also restricting public use of the B fields after several incidents of vandalism. Richardson High School's Eagle/Mustang Stadium has been vandalized four times in the last six months. Concession stands were destroyed, vendor merchandise was stolen and gates were damaged. Recently at Berkner High School’s B field, vandals burned the artificial turf, causing about $40,000 in damage. Because the fields are covered in artificial field turf, it is not simply a matter of growing more grass, but of having to replace expensive areas of turf.Effective Monday, October 2, stadiums will only be open for RISD or rental activities, and will be locked at all other times. The B fields at Berkner and Pearce will be open to the public from 5 a.m. to 7 p.m. daily, except when in use by the district. In addition, the district is considering more security cameras at all fields. Celina Cárdenas District Community Liaison Richardson ISD 400 S. Greenville Richardson, Texas 75081 (469)593-0307
