How much does Fairfax County charge a kids nonprofit for an hour use of a turf field?

[Anonymous]

Just wondering.

One-time use fee is $50.

Is that different than getting permited space for a whole season?

I believe its a "per player" fee that they charge each season based on the club rosters that are submitted (out of county players have a higher fee), so clubs are not charged a flat fee per hour.

So theoretically, its a nonprofit and there are two teams. All the kids are from Fairfax. 40 kids. How much to get use of a field once a week for a season (3 months?)

Its strange they charge the same fee for turf and crappy grass fields.

For this season? The deadline was in December. The summer deadline was in March. The fall deadline is June 1. And turf fields are hard to come by.

But theoretically, it would be $400. Forty kids x $10 per kid.

The bigger question is what is the availability. Organizations that have a bigger spend with the county you get first priority.

You can reserve any field. Head to their site. It's very easy to reserve.
