Been a long time coming. Their program deserves it.

So what all is this bond working on besides the fields?   I am hoping Ned gets one  passed in May as well.

I heard they were also putting aluminum bleachers on top of the cement stands on the home side.

interesting.   I do like the leg room there, but the concrete isn't too good on the backside.

No the concrete isn’t fun but I think bleacher part on top of that would be nice. I liked Carthage stands the whole middle of the stands had stadium seats. At the ticket booth you could upgrade and get a nice seat.

Awesome! WOS surely deserves it. Their athletes deserve it. When will this take place? Will they have it for next season? I wish Newton could get turf, but we all know that will never happen. Hopefully a couple of these guys on the team make it to the NFL and they go in on it one day. Wishful thinking on my part though.

Stadium type bleachers,new press box,remodel weight room also turf for baseball field and updates for the school and equipment.Total cost around 21/22million or around there.They are really doing a lot not just for athletics.

Thanks.  So they are updating but not replacing schools correct?

That is my understanding.

If I could only go back to some arguments about this very thing.. oh well.

Congrats WOS.  This is more than deserved.

I think that is correct and are going to update security where you just can't walk in.

Ok, yeah that sounds like what Nederland did a few years ago with their bond.   I am hoping that  the next one replaces a couple of the schools.

I think you have made this argument for years, but we won't go there.

It is more than deserved and will only make them better.

Do they get a new stadium or remodel the old one?

Just adding stadium seats and a new Press box.
