The artificial turf installed at Carson Park football stadium in 2004 is surpassing its 8-year guarantee, with another 3 or 4 years of use expected before it may need to be replaced. Phil Fieber, director of the city's Parks and Recreation Department, said the lack of use over the winter months has likely helped preserve the field. "Field Turf told us that we would get longer use out of it because the field is covered in snow for a good chunk of the year," Fieber said. "The product, when we first got it, hadn't even been out for 8 years, so it was like a crapshoot when they guaranteed it. They were confident that 8 years was a pretty good ballpark estimate."
