As residents of Star Valley can attest, the summer months are fleeting and weather can be uncooperative. Despite this limited number of days, work has commenced in earnest at SVHS where something special is the goal for those involved.

That goal is when the athletes and students of Star Valley High School attend the beginning of the 2008-09 school year, that a fabulous new facility will be at their disposal.

The current location of the football field is now undergoing the initial phases of what will result in a new artificial field turf that will house the Braves as well as the Braves and Lady Braves soccer teams.  In addition to the field itself, a track & field area like none that SVHS has ever seen will also be constructed, including an eight-lane track and a state-of-the-art timing system.

Be sure to click below for an update on the project with SVHS Activities Director Jamie Holyoak who had his sleeves rolled up and was aiding in the process before taking a break to speak with the Independent.

Also, look for an update on the progress of the project every Tuesday right here at starvalleyindependent.com.
