1. Memorial Stadium & Facilities
  2. 2011 Stadium Renovation

August First

August First. A lot of dirt showing!. We'll start on top. The hill at the north end of the stadium continues to be whittled down. The foundation is poured for the new steps to the top of the stadium. The top walk area of the stadium is filled and ready to be poured. Finishing touches are being applied to the inside of the team rooms, including drywall and paint. The track asphalt has been laid so it looks like a track now. 23 days to the first Freshman/JV game.
