WINTER DINNER MEETING RECAP NESTMA members enjoyed a terrific presentation at the February 4 dinner meeting. Patrick Maguire, President and Founding Principal of Activitas, gave attendees an exclusive look at how a 68-acre derelict site, with countless development shortcomings, was transformed into a one-of-a-kind Major League Soccer training facility for the New England Revolution at Gillette Stadium. Members learned how these next-level fields were designed, constructed and maintained. MANY THANKS TO OUR SPONSORS:
