Forsyth County will offer an open-house, drop-in style public input meeting and an online survey for residents to provide feedback and ask questions about the design of a master plan for the renovation of the Polo Fields Park. Renovations will include improvements to the sport field areas and other enhancements to meet community recreational needs. 

The public input meeting will be held from 5 to 7 p.m. on Wednesday, Oct. 15, at the Polo Fields HOA Clubhouse (6300 Polo Club Drive). Residents may complete the online survey by clicking here through Nov. 5. As additional information is available, updates will be shared at https://parks.forsythco.com/Parks/Polo-Fields-Park.

“With a highly desirable location, iconic history and active soccer program, serving over 2,200 players on a regular basis, Polo Fields Park was one of the most challenging, yet valuable, properties for Forsyth County to acquire,” said Forsyth County District 3 Commissioner Todd Levent. “Having heard from the public at many town hall and HOA meetings over the years, I know there’s interest in maintaining the soccer fields, improving a few with turf, adequate parking and exploring some new features like a small amphitheater, tennis/pickle ball courts, a dog park, an additional multi-purpose athletic field, a pavilion for events, and a meandering trail with trees.”

The Polo Fields Park property (6050 Majors Road) consists of approximately 39 acres that the County acquired in the summer of 2022. It is best known for the polo matches hosted there in the 1980s and for the youth soccer program currently held there. The renovation project aims to make improvements to the property, aligning it with the standards of Forsyth County Parks & Recreation to serve the community better. Lose Design has been contracted to lead the development of the master plan design.

"This park belongs to the community, and your voice matters in shaping its future," said Forsyth County Director of Parks & Recreation Kirk Franz. "Polo Fields Park has so much potential, but the only way we can make it a place that truly fits our families, neighbors and friends is by hearing from you. Please take a few minutes to complete the survey and join us at the public meeting. Your ideas will help us create a park that makes us all proud."
