[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Maret kids need a practice.  Outrageous— my parents pay taxes just like others so it’s reasonable to get field space—- just like any other school!!!![/quote]

You and all your exclamation points are ridiculous. Go away. The adults are talking. [/quote]

You can have field access equal to what Hardy gets.  Fair?[/quote]

That would require that Hardy + DCPS contract with DPR for a permit to use the fields. Have they done this?  And has the BGC requested a permit (even one that starts at say 5 pm).  Don’t most people realize that the majority of permitted field use at Jelleff is for private organizations.  It’s not a public place - it’s quasi-public and has been for the past decade.  For crying out loud, it’s the hardest field to get on - you can’t just walk up and use it.

And remember, there are children involved here and you may not like how this has unfolded but leave the kids out of this and don’t dare tell the Maret kid who lives in SE and is on full financial aid and out there for practice one hour a day he or she is privileged.  [/quote]

Here's a 2-acre field Maret can buy in Bladensburg:  https://www.redfin.com/MD/Bladensburg/Emerson-St-20710/home/23269222
