Farwell Field
Thanks to a land donation from Senator Charles B. Farwell, who
also funded the College’s gymnasium 13 years earlier, Farwell
Field was opened in 1903 for Lake Forest’s football and
baseball teams. It has been home to Forester football ever since
and was renovated prior to the 2004 season. New bleachers and a
state-of-the-art press box were constructed and artificial grass
was installed on the field itself. It also became the permanent
home of the College’s soccer teams at that time.
Features:
- Regulation football and soccer field
- Press box with phone and data line accessibility
- Bleacher seating and standing room (total capacity 2000)
- Adjacent to Halas Hall, which includes locker rooms and meeting rooms
