“The end is in sight as we wrap up construction on the Lebanon Sports Complex,” Bell said. “Although the construction took longer than we hoped, the final product will be something we can all be proud of. Many generations of kids will play on these fields for decades.”
According to the City of Lebanon, the last youth athletic field built by the city was in 2001.
