The work that these Dads did this summer exceeded my expectations for the school. Well done!!
8th Grade student, "The track looks amazing and feels great. Why did you wait until I was in 8th grade to do this?".
Dad, "Thank-you it took the team to make this happen for y'all, This is our 1st year here and wish this was done before; sincerest apologies."
I am in complete shock and awe that yall transformed the track like that. That is insane crazy.
Sooo.... Where do you guys find the time to do all this work? Between family, work, personal interests... This is incredible and we really appreciate all that you do. Let us know when you have projects coming. We would love to get involved and help.
