Official pagePacking notes
- The fields are synthetic turf, so pack turf shoes; the complex profile also lists an infield sprinkler system.
- Bring chairs, sunscreen and a windproof layer. Gillette sits on open high plains, so afternoons can be hot and breezy and nights under the lights cool off fast.
- Siblings can bring swimsuits for the splash pad next to the fields when it's running, and walking shoes for the recreation trail around the complex.
