Edgewater Park Township Approves Weimann Field Improvements:
At the recent Township meeting, Township Committee agreed to proceed with some much needed field improvements. Weimann field is in pretty poor condition relative to its grass and a plan was developed by Aubrey Painter (Township Director of Public Works) to lime, fertilize, and seed. Mr. Painter was also creative in working out arrangements with Delanco to borrow their aerator as well.
Linda Dougherty, Township Municipal Clerk/Administrator is also working with Mr. Painter to come up with a plan to maintain and/or replace the lights at Weimann and Memorial fields.
We're very thankful that the township is helping our programs out by taking this type of initiative. We believe this is only the first step and are looking for ways of funding the real challenge that our fields have; the need for irrigation (well water and sprinklers) to water our fields and make them stand up to the activities we use them for. If anyone has any creative ideas about fundraising and/or addressing the problem, please contact Steve Bruneau
Aeration at Weimann has already happened and the remaining work will be done in the near future.

EPAA Website
The Edgewater Park Athletic Association (EPAA) uses this website to support our various sports leagues. The primary focus of the website is to provide one place where team rosters, schedules, and EPAA information can be found. This is being done in an effort to better communicate the mission of our organization and the progress all our teams are making.
As you look around the website you will find many useful links to information that is useful all year long and even a link to weather information that is relevant today. Please don't hesitate to make suggestions for further improvements.
On behalf of the entire EPAA, we thank you for your child's participation in our leagues, and ask that you participate as much as possible to help us provide the best environment for the development of our children.
