Chappapeela Sports Park has been a wonderful community resource for Hammond High Magnet School. We have had the pleasure of utilizing it for athletic events as the facilities allow us to host tournaments providing opportunities for our athletes to scrimmage with a host of other schools. Most recently we had the need to locate a facility to hold our Homecoming Dance as our enrollment has increased which in turn creates the need for a larger venue. When called, Chappapeela opened its facilities with open arms. Additionally we have had many students be able to work part-time with the park which gives them applicable work experiences that will be beneficial to them once they graduate and enter the workforce! I am thankful for Chappapeela and its continued support for Hammond High Magnet School and am looking forward to many more years of awesome opportunities for partnership and collaboration!
