Last week the elementary inaugurated a brand new soccer field. If you've ever seen the old field (I don't have any pictures right now), you'll know it was terrible. It was a rock/dirt field, and when it would rain it would leave "canyons" throughout. Every once in a while the school would add some more rocks or sand to try and even it out, but kids would still fall and get hurt ALL THE TIME. They've been talking for awhile about putting a small turf field there and over Christmas they started putting in the drainage, foundation, and walls. And it was finally completed last week. On Thursday they had an inauguration with the entire elementary giving thanks to the workers, several families, and God for the new field. The school board came and several awards were handed out, so it was a pretty big deal. I think my favorite part was how loud the kids cheered for the school's maintenance men who did all the work.
