| Abstract/Contents: | Discusses synthetic turf as a potential alternative "in areas that really can't sustain natural grass because of the site, the amount of use, or both." Profiles the University of Maryland and highlights its use of synthetic turf in several of its facilities, including a baseball field, Cole Field House, La Plata Beach, and an outdoor volleyball court. Concludes that "the creative use of synthetic infill turf has certainly allowed [the University of Maryland] to better serve [the] campus community in their leisure activities." |
