Updates - 21 August 2015

Hello everyone,

Surely, by now you've noticed the new pavers out front.  A lovely upgrade, don't you think?  A lot better looking than the bare dirt (or mud) that we had before.  This week we installed a couple of our old picnic tables out there, too, in the shade under the big pine tree.  They should be getting a new coat of paint soon.  Hopefully you're able to have lunch or a brief respite out there sometime.

In that vein, we should see the (real grass) sod installed on our new (nearly) regulation-size soccer field in the next few weeks, and fresh asphalt will resurface the firelane between the school buildings and kinder-playground (and also out back behind the cafeteria) sometime in October.

Finally, I have great hope that we'll have a new state-of-the-art digital marquee in the "planter" out front before long, too.
