Blair High School's transition from natural grass to field turf is evident Tuesday at Krantz Field. The multi-sport stadium's latest project started in May at the conclusion of the track and field season with hopes of a Aug. 1 completion date. In February, the Blair Community Schools Board of Education approved a bid from Mid America Sports Construction for $958,958.58 to install the synthetic turf playing field.

The usual signage is up around Krantz Field, but so, too, are signs noting the field's closure as construction continues.

Krantz Field's green grass is gone, but a more permanent turf field of green will be installed this summer.
