Work Begins on New Track and Turf Field Facility

The summer has proven to be one of great excitement at Union Catholic. The installation of a new state-of-the-art synthetic turf field and track surface has begun! The new facilities will be used by our soccer, lacrosse, softball, baseball, cross country, track and field, and cheerleading teams along with our Physical Education classes and intramural sports teams. All of our students will benefit!

The photos below show some of the first days of work including the tearing down of the old baseball field, fencing and the excavation of the concrete curb that lined the old track.

The facility will be financed entirely by the generosity of donors. Giving opportunities are available. If you are interested in hearing more about the project and other important school-wide initiatives pleas
