"The County of Placer, its officers, agents, and employees, is named as additional insured for all liability arising out of the operations by or on behalf of the named insured in the performance of this Agreement."   "The insurance provided is primary coverage of the County of Placer with respect to any insurance of self-insurance programs maintained by the County, and no insurance held or owned by the County shall be called upon to contribute to a loss."

Field use fee is $2.00 per hour for non-profit leagues, $5.00 per hour for the general public and $20.00 per hour for Commercial and School use per field.   

The field shall not be used within 24 hours of rain without first checking with the Parks Division at  (530) 886-4900.  Fields shall not be used when soggy field conditions exist.  Any damage done to the fields as a result of use shall be the responsibility of the user to repair, or the user will need to pay Placer County's cost to make the repair as determined by the County.  Alternate available dates may be offered in the event of inclement weather by notifying the Parks Division the following day.  During any unreserved time period(s), a field shall be available on a first-come, first-serve basis.  However, if our Parks crew needs to perform maintenance work, you may be asked to leave the field.
