There has recently been a major fund-raising campaign at Lakota East and West high schools. It is for funds to facilitate upgrades to the football stadiums at the schools. It is being led by a group of private citizens.
Atrium Medical Center in Middletown provided a contribution that will go towards the base of the funding for installing field turf at both schools. The remainder of the funding will came from F.I.E.L.D.S. they also will provide stadium rentals, and reduced maintenance expenses. The members of the group are committed to raising the additional dollars needed to insure that turf installation can occur without additional taxpayer expense. If there is additional money raised it will go towards funding the board approved projects at the stadiums.
F.I.E.L.D.S. is partnering with the West Chest-Liberty Community Foundation to manage donations. They are also working with the district to offer a donor recognition program. Along with sponsorship opportunities.
