KILGORE, Texas — The City of Kilgore has announced additional progress at the Highway 135 Youth Sport Complex, saying a major renovation project at the site is nearing completion and will be ready for use and play this year.
The late December update from the city stated grass would be fully grown in and ready for play in 2024. The site has been undergoing a major renovation effort begun in May 2023, but was years in the making.
The renovation included the installation of four new light poles around the soccer fields and 12 new poles around the softball fields to replace the old lighting system. This includes three security lighting modules to help light up the parking lots.
