The news just came in that the project is officially moving forward and I am truly stunned by the outcome. This only happened because you all cared enough to speak up. I am so incredibly lucky to have had you by my side for this.

Reasons to support the installation of our Track and Turf field:
· Water conservation – will save millions of gallons a year
· No fertilizer/pesticide – save thousands of pounds of both each year
· Better and more uniform drainage for the field and playing surface
· Provide a safer running surface for our cross country and track athletes
· Provide a safer field for our soccer, football and lacrosse teams
· This type of field is installed at other schools in our conference (public and private)

I am honestly overwhelmed by how many of you have stepped up to support this track project. If you can help get us to the one hundred mark by posting this link just once today it would be an incredible boost.

WAY OVERDUE. The facilities are decades behind everyone else in the league. Do it.
Fix the track. It is honestly embarrassing how bad it has gotten over the years.
My son plays soccer here and he is always twisting ankles on that uneven ground. PLEASE fix this.
its about time we got a real field here. the dirt is a nightmare when it rains and the kids deserve better than this.
water bills are crazy so this makes a lot of sense for the school long term

the current track at the Priory was developed in 1959, and hasn't changed. This situation is sad for athletes at the Priory who wish to train properly, without risk of injury due to dirt track. Moreover, most every study I have read over the years give multiple very good economic and environmental reasons to install an artificial surface track. as a former Priory athlete when the current track was made, and as a former NCAA Division 1 head track coach and U.S. Team coach, I can't impress enough the importance of installing a new article facial surface.
