Painting the Field

Last fall the school created a field for the band to use for practice. They took out the pavilion and the sand volleyball courts out. They extended the grassy area, put in sod, and now the band has a field for them. It is not quite the size that it should be, but it will work for the early season practices. It's had all winter and spring for the sod to grow together and now it is time to be used. Before the band uses it for the first time we had to make the field. First we had to "square" it off. Then we painted markes every 10 yards, then some marks at the five yard lines. Plus some "cross" marks in the middle. It took longer to do than I thought it would, but was a fun project with all of the GREAT people who came to help.

I can only imagine how priceless you and Richard are to the band for how much you do! Looks like you did a great job!!!
That is awesome that the High School gave you your own field, too! Hooray!
