The 10-acre Pirate Park site is located between the Greensburg Community High School and the Greensburg-Decatur County Public Library, adjacent to Rebekah Park. In 2020, Greensburg Community Schools donated the 10-acre location for the park to the City of Greensburg. As the City of Greensburg made plans for the development of the property, the Decatur County Youth Soccer League developed a plan to create soccer fields for local games and large regional tournaments for both youth and adults. READI funding were used to: 1. Construct walking paths that connect soccer fields at the facility, joining with the existing and future paths; and 2. Construct a central pavilion, providing locker rooms, a concessions area, public restrooms, and storage space.
