They’re probably putting up a monument to mark my 10 year anniversary of living in Willow.
Redoing the fields, drainage and lights. Need more room for itramural sports and the lights allows them to go till 10pm or so. There is another thread with more information but that the gist of it
Ash hall got the emerald ash borer so they had to take it down.
You had one job!!!

They are building lighted parking lots so you can start tailgating as soon as 10pm the night before a game
2.6 million for better drainage and lighting on an intramural field? Didn't the state just slash ISU's budget? Dumb.
Not quite how the system works. Each Department/College gets their budget and can do as they please. Athletics and Rec Services, are their own department as can do projects as they see fit. Athletics is self-sustaining and I believe Recreation Services is too, after a change a few years ago.
It will also help when Ames/ISU bid on future summer sporting events, and when they host the regular ones (Special Olympics, Iowa Games, etc.).
