Lack of workers hit City ballfield maintenance in New Castle
City Recreation Director Darrell Des cites manpower shortages as the main obstacle to keeping 26 fields in shape through spring and summer. Only four full‑time staff handle field conditioning, with others tied to parks and playgrounds. Vandalism and limited equipment worsen delays, while leagues and volunteers are urged to assist to keep fields ready for May.
