The Dubuque Community School District has formalized the hours both Dalzell Field and the Hempstead High School practice field are available for public usage.

Dalzell Field is open for walkers and joggers to utilize the track from 5-7 a.m. on weekdays. The track at the Hempstead field is open for walkers and joggers from 5-7 a.m. and again from 7-10 p.m. when there are no practices, games or rentals. Hempstead is also open from 5 a.m.-10 p.m. on weekends when there are no practices, games or rentals. No pets or bikes are allowed in the facilities.

The scheduled was developed by the district’s activities committee to allow for general public availability while balancing both issues of securing the facility and the increasing use of the facilities by school and community groups.
