• Roswell to upgrade soccer fields at Grimes Bridge Park (wsbtv.com) — Roswell is investing nearly $4 million to convert two heavily used natural-grass soccer fields at Grimes Bridge Park to artificial turf, with added safety and drainage upgrades starting in January. Construction will limit some nearby parking but keep the Adult Recreation Center open, and the work is expected to wrap up by August 2026, improving reliability for local players and events.
