We're excited to share that this upcoming fall, renovation will begin on THS' track! This is extremely exciting news for THS as the track renovation will provide us with our first competitive, rubberized, metric track. We're deeply thankful to BPS for approving this project and graciously funding close to $1,000,000 for the rubber resurfacing and re-curbing.
Once completed, the upgraded track will be on par with other schools and enable us to host track meets. Our track and field athletes will benefit from their “home turf advantage” and the future revenue from home meets will benefit THS athletic programs and help pay for future track and field gear, equipment, and travel costs. In addition, nearly every student who attends THS will use the track at some point during P.E. classes, ROTC, or while participating in extracurricular sports.
However, in order to fully complete the necessary upgrades, THS bears some of the financial burden, and we must raise $129,044 (see flyer for the breakdown of these costs). Some good news, and aside from the $129K, THS has already come up with $53K to purchase much needed, brand-new equipment (hurdles, starting blocks, pole vault, and high jump pads and standards) for competitive track and field!
Now we’re reaching out to Terrier Nation to come together as a family to help us reach our fundraising goal of $129,044 by November 1. We hope you believe as strongly as we do that having the right training surfaces, equipment, and resources is just as crucial as the focus, commitment, effort, and ex*****on of our students and athletes. Please consider donating $25 or more to our campaign and share our fundraising flyer on your social media/through email. Thank you very much for your consideration!
