Renovation awaiting demolition bids.

By Steve Koczela

Several of you asked me why no visible progress has been made on the athletic field renovation, so I emailed Sean Cummings to find out.  Here is his response.

Steve,

We are awaiting demolition bids to be back Oct. 19th and expect demolition to commence shortly thereafter.

- Sean Cummings
Chairman, D2D Committee

This raises several questions:

1. Why we have been unable to use the field for the last month and a half, despite no construction activity?
2. Why didn't we already have demolition bids in hand before restricting use of the field?

I suppose this explains why I saw a cart being followed by a horse down Capitol Drive. Seriously, lack of planning such as this is eroding any faith I may have had in this project. Not only were the football team and students of this year's senior class deprived of playing their homecoming game on their own filed, but we, as taxpayers, paid needless costs to move the team, band and everything else to Wisconsin Lutheran College and back again!
