Athletic Fields
The Athletic Fields project addresses several issues, including the consolidation of athletic fields on the east side of campus. Also, some field areas on the west side of campus needed to be moved to prepare for construction of the new Early Child Education and Care facility. The Athletic Fields project will be completed in multiple phases.
