The City of Northfield has mounted two donor recognition signs to the interior of the Amerman Pavilion at the Spring Creek Park Soccer Complex on Jefferson Parkway. The signs list all the organizations, businesses, and individuals who contributed to the construction of both the complex and the pavilion.
Locally Grown has been chosen to test an innovative project called Representative Journalism (RepJ). Bonnie Obremski is the RepJ reporter/journalist currently assigned to Northfield.

Thanks for posting these examples of public/private partnering and strong local leadership. In addition to the Spring Creek Soccer fields and the Amerman Pavilion, the complex also boasts the WINGS Oasis (drinking fountain and misters for cooling off) and Every Body’s Playground, a handicapped accessible playground (Beth Benson lead the effort on this one).
Incidentally, Jeff Amerman’s daughter Ruth continues the family tradition - she’s been instrumental in the Key’s Skatepark development efforts.
