Elgin Sports Complex — Attraction in Elgin

Elgin fields is a drive, no matter where you're coming from. The fields are a dust bowl. The parking is chaotic. They have the only BMX race park that I know of. The staff are polite but need a stake in the success of the venue. As with a lot of parks, field maintenance in the off season is desperately needed. But it is a place where college coaches come to see prospects and sometimes dreams are made. What it does for young girls playing softball in college, can't be under stated.The latest change is covers over the dug outs. By the way, I don't play golf but can anyone use that excellent golf course next door? They also have Soccer fields, which I have never seen anyone on. But they are there. This should be a jewel of the Elgin infrastructure. Please shine...
