Abstract/Contents: | Profiles Connie Rudolph, the head groundskeeper for Midway Stadium in Saint Paul, Minnesota, stating that "Midway is a revenue source for the city and one of the heaviest scheduled stadiums anywhere." Details the events hosted at Midway, including Saint Paul Saints football games, Hamline College football games, concerts, and motocross events. Profiles the field at Midway, stating that "the site was originally a dump located next to the Minnesota State Fairgrounds" and that the "turf is a mix of 50 percent Kentucky bluegrass and 50 percent perennial ryegrass." Details the maintenance program at Midway and describes the challenges faced by Rudolph, stating that "scheduling is [her] biggest challenge...to balance the need to generate revenue with the need to have a good playing surface." |
