The City of Tombstone is working to transform Medigovich Field into a soccer field, addressing the lack of youth sports leagues in the historic Arizona town.
Currently, families like Colin Regan and his daughter Cassidy must travel to Sierra Vista, Tucson, or even Phoenix just so she can play soccer.
"Living here in Tombstone, there's not much for us to do other than go to school and play our school sports, but at school we don't have soccer," Cassidy Regan said.
Mayor Pro Tem Colin Regan wants to change that reality for local children.
"We want to build more of a community bond with the kids and whatnot here. So we ultimately believe that this, this is a good starting point," Regan said.
The community has raised $6,400 so far, covering costs for irrigation and grass for the new field
