Ticket Booth Enter at two places, directly behind home stands and just above the concession stand.  Then walk down to field level
Concession Stand Building is in the north east corner of the stadium (would be off to the left of the picture)
Rest Rooms Same building as Concession Stand
Parking Stadium has a rather small parking lot next to softball field.  The softball field is just behind the pressbox. You can also park at Portage Central High School across the street or you can also go through the reserved lot and park behind the visiting stands
Play Clocks No
Used for Soccer No
Notes With both Portage Central and Northern playing their home games here, the field generally gets torn up.  To get to the visiting stands you have to walk outside the track behind a fence along the grass/dirt trail.  PA system is also very hard to hear from the visiting side.  Goal posts are painted in the school colors of the winner of the Portage Central vs. Northern game every year.
