Whittier Field, Athletic stadium in Brunswick, United States
Whittier Field contains a 400-meter synthetic track with eight lanes surrounding a central playing field at Bowdoin College, accommodating 9,000 spectators.
The field opened in October 1896, followed by the construction of the Hubbard Grandstand in 1904, which measures 122 feet long and 37 feet wide.
The stadium serves as the primary venue for Bowdoin College football games, track competitions, and the Maine Distance Festival throughout the academic year.
The track facility maintains regular hours aligned with college schedules, and visitors should verify access times before arrival due to school events.
Olympic athletes, including Steve Prefontaine, used this facility as a training camp location before the 1972 Munich Olympics.
