The new sports field at Ain Aar is
now open. A ribbon cutting and
opening ceremony was held in

already had its first session in the
new field. There are still some addi-

walkways, and providing spectator
seating in the near future, but es-
sentially the field is done.
The master plan for Ain Aar calls for
many improvements in the facility
in the future.
The new field is just the beginning.
