Due to a pending soaking rain and the oversaturation of the ground, the Belmont Department of Public Works has closed all of the town’s grass fields on March 20 and March 21. This includes activities such as youth sports and dog walking.

This is the second closure of town fields this year; they were closed for 12 days in February due to melting snow cover and rainy conditions.
