First of all Congrats to the new student rep. Panashe is an AWESOME young man and will be an asset to the Board. My big question is what renovations to HdeG new stadium are needed? It was just built shouldn't this been part of the original building plans? HdeG needs a new building before work on a stadium upgrade.

@HappieGrannie —
There are no renovations being made to the stadium. The stadium is receiving a snack bar/locker room building—similar to those at other facilities around the county. There's a link in the article above that will take you to another article outlining some of those plans.
We'll have a recap of the meeting tomorrow.
Thanks,
Sean
