While the field at Somerset was paid for 100% through fund raising efforts on the part of the Somerset Elementary School Foundation, i.e. no tax dollars were spent on it, the field is the property of Montgomery County Public Schools. Montgomery County’s Office of Community Use of Public Facilities (CUPF) will be responsible for scheduling use of the field throughout the week including after school hours (after 6:30) and weekends. CUPF will also determine the rental rate. It should also be noted that the field will not be rented to teams above U12 or for football or field hockey play.
