Field Rental Information - City of Vancouver

WELCOME TO LUKE JENSEN SPORTS PARK!
Thank you for your interest in using the Luke Jensen Sports Park! We trust that you will truly enjoy
your experience at this beautiful new facility. In order to make the most of your experience and to
keep the facility looking and playing beautifully for many years to come, here are a few guidelines
to facilitate everyone’s enjoyment of Clark County’s premier athletic fields complex.
1. Luke Jensen Sports Park is located at 4000 NE 78 th Avenue. It is approximately ¼ mile to the
west of St. John’s Road. It is adjacent to Kings Way Christian School and the Vancouver First
Church of God.
2. There are 5 fields at the park: 3 synthetic fields and 2 natural turf fields. Two fields have
lights. There is a concessions stand, a playgound, restrooms, picnic tables, a large meeting
room, scoreboards, batting cages, bullpens, an amazing sound system, and much more!
3. Synthetic Turf is an amazing surface. We love it just as much as you do. To protect your
investment in this facility, we do not allow animals, food, or beverages (except water) on the
surface. Sunflower seeds, gum, peanuts, and similar food items are also not allowed on the
fields or in the dugouts. They can shorten the lifespan of the surface and drainage systems.
4. Similarly, metal and/or steel spikes are prohibited on the synthetic fields. Propelling objects
into the fencing throughout the park is a no-no as well.
5. Sorry, but skateboards, roller blades, bicycles, and scooters aren’t allowed in the park.
Please keep them at home for the safety and enjoyment of all the park’s guests.
6. Field use fees range from $15/hr. to $55/hr. depending upon the age group your
organization serves, and their Clark County residency status. Prep & maintenance fees apply
and are between $20-$45/day. Lights are an additional $10/hr.
7. Insurance is required for use by organized groups of 10 or more.
