From the reviews

Came for the GR Elite Challenge track meet...stayed for the fabulous woman announcer!! (and my son 🙃)

★★★★★ — Elisabeth, Apr 2023

I ran track here last year. It's a wonderful field. It's very well build, absolutely perfect for running. I would recommend this place to anyone training for sports. There's lots of room which is amazing. Cannot recommend this enough, 10/10 track

★★★★★ — Red, Jan 2025

…Putting on track spikes only in the bleachers is not very ideal, and not allowing teams to use the field is odd

★★★★☆ — Matt, May 2025

They charge $2.00 to watch the track meets! Nice and clean! They sell pop and snacks at the concession stand. Safe place to watch ur kid's track meet's because it's heavily secured by security guards.
