The Sachem Central School District Athletic Department is proud to unveil new turf baseball fields at Sachem High School East and Sachem High School North. District and building administrators joined both varsity baseball teams and coaches at their respective ribbon-cutting ceremonies to celebrate the opening of the fields.

“The creation of these fields have exceeded all expectations,” said Director of Athletics, Physical Education, Health and Health Services Gary Beutel. “They truly are state-of-the-art facilities, and the Sachem school district and community can look forward to using them for many years.”

The turf fields were approved by voters as part of a capital project proposition in 2023.

Students buckled up their crampons and hiked the Sólheimajökull Glacier. They beheld the beauty and power of several waterfalls, including the Seljalandsfoss, Skógarfoss and Gullfoss Falls. Additionally, the group witnessed the activity in the Krísuvík geothermal field, strolled the black sand beaches of Vic, and had an incredible swim at Sky Lagoon.
