Work has begun on the football stadium at Wayland High School, with plenty of dirt moving and machines. Because of savings accrued from previous physical projects, the school district was able to approve implementing artificial turf at Ron Stehouwer Stadium and soccer fields and finally eliminate the much-despised “crown” in the middle of the field. Now the biggest question is whether the facility will be able to be used in late August for the start of the 2020 high school football season.

Sounds like a real responsible thing to do with the State talking a 25% cut in funding.Can not have everything but people spending other peoples money makes it easy.
Dennis: This expenditure was approved before the virus hit and the money is set aside only for building and construction projects. It can’t be used for anything else.
I understand earmarked money. Spending that much money on something that may not be used for a long time is not responsible. The football field could have waited.
Now that field should at least be level. Not a slope of 3ft ( I could stand corrected) .
That goodness if we ever get back to education and football at least ot will hopefully be a level field.
Folks without football especially a good football team your school system just doesn’t grow in more areas than just football.
