RE: Larimar construction thread
I was there this afternoon and they were shoveling all kind of stuff out a window on the 2nd floor. There is also a big opening facing lot 10 and a scissor lift or something was doing stuff around there.

RE: Larimar construction thread
Stopped to take a look after the EMU basketball game on Saturday.
1. Excavation (demo) of dirt around existing building is done.
2. Stone building pad is started but not completed.
3. Storm catch basins and site pipe are in.
4. Cassions are poured and in place for new building.

Ohio is also adding a real nice addition in their indoor practice facility. I like the addition of windows to an indoor facility. Gives it some life.

I would love to have big windows on the side facing the track and glass bowl. Natural light does so much for your phyche. Sky lights would be cool too. Could tho be retofiitted into the fetter am at some point?

Harder to run a truly closed practice.

There is a ton or natural light from those windows that are opaque in the fetterman. At night time, the artificial lighting is hardly enough IMO. Day practices are much much nicer.

The inside is completely gutted. They are working on expanding out to lot 10. From what Coach Campbell told me, the project should be done by the end of August.

End of August ???
The general contractor for the project will I assume be liable for some financial penalties if that is the case.
TERRY, our sub-contractor on the board, can probably fill in on any details...

Really wish they would replace the scoreboard with a new one that sits top of the new construction.

Yep. And I know, it costs $$$, but a bigger video board would be great. Like the Mud Hens have where the whole thing is a video board, but you can also use part of it (like the bottom on sides) as the scoreboard.

I did hear a new sore board is being put up next year. From one end of Larimar Building to the other. From good source.
