Football/Soccer Field Update

Posted July 28th, 2008 in Athletics, Development, High School

Lancer Family,

Check out our latest development photos

The new entrance gate was put up and the asphalt was laid last week.  It was also aerated and filled in.  Yesterday the sprinkler heads were replaced for ones more compatible with safety.  Today they field was hydro seeded and in two weeks the field goals come in.  Now we just wait, water, and watch the seed grow.  It is fun to watch our field transform into something that we can call our own and be proud of.  The football staff has been hard at work with drastic upgrades in the locker room as well.  We are now hard at work raising funds to make our home safe and aesthetically pleasing.  If you get a chance, come by and take a look.  If you feel compelled and need a tax write off drop off a check while you are at it.  We still have the following needs:

Field Goals:	$7600 ($5000 has been donated)	Need $2600
Benches:	$2000	Need $2000
Fence Tarps and banners:	$2800	Need $2800
Fence Padding	$1600	Need $1600
	Total Need	$9000

If you are not able to help financially, please contribute by praying for our new venture and school as a whole.  It is looking good to get some bleachers out there through a local company who expressed a preliminary interest to help.  We are praying hard that Chick’s Sporting Goods comes through with a free scoreboard for us.  Their projection is good according to their managers, but nothing is definite yet.  We want all of those who play on this field to be safe and Glorify God and we pray for those who helped on the project to be blessed.

If you are interested in giving towards this project please contact me via e-mail or on my work cell at 626-375-8816.  Thank you for you time, support, and prayer.

In Christ We Compete,
