FACILITY UPGRADES – Many supporters have asked me about various projects that we are working on. Currently, we have several, thanks to a combination of funding sources to help make them happen:
•Reese Court locker room project – This has been something that our department has had high on the list for many years for gender equity reasons and fortunately this is the biennium in which it will take place . In fact, the project is currently underway and is slated to be finished by January. This will positively affect volleyball, women’s basketball, soccer, golf, and both tennis programs.
•Reese Court seating project – We will be extracting the current “team bench side” bleachers, splitting them and re-installing them on the baselines. We will then install new collapsible seating on the “team bench side.” There are a couple different phases to this project and we are working through the logistics with our facilities department.
•We are also doing a number of “minor” projects at Roos, some of which include: The lower concession stand being painted and re-roofed; the upper portable ticket booths replaced with newer, nicer and more functional units; more wind screening around the fencing of the stadium; and speakers installed on the exterior of the Donor Suites and Media Center so that Larry Weir and Paul Sorensen can be heard throughout the upper concourse. And, finally, on game day there will be a new Coors Light Touchdown Club on the scoreboard side of the end zone. This will serve as our “club” area and in my opinion will become very popular. If you are interested in more details, please call our ticket office at 509-359-6059.
Until next month…
Best,
Bill
