Our High School, Academy and Grade School teams will now have access to a beautiful, state-of-the-art facility! And permanent lights will bring “Friday Night Lights” excitement to our athletes, student body, faculty, families and fans!
But we need your help. We have raised over $1 Million for this project…..and are reaching out to invite everyone’s participation in the final stage of our campaign to raise the additional $775,000 for the project to be complete. The total cost for our new turf field, which will give our athletes an amazing playing facility, includes expenses required by the city to upgrade our underground water retention system. It establishes the necessary infrastructure for our long term strategic plan to upgrade the parking lot and provide for future growth of our schools.
Our goal is clear. $775,000 in new gifts or pledges must be committed by April 1 of this year, with payments on those pledges complete before December 31, 2021. We are reaching out to invite all school families, CYO members and alumni to contribute to this exciting and historic effort as we work to pave the path for our school’s future.
Every gift is important in making this Field a reality, whether it is a one-time donation or gifts given over time. Our core plan for funding the project is built upon the giving tree payment plan.
This new Athletic Field represents a major milestone in our Parish community’s strategic plan for reaching out to so many others as we share our faith with our children and our community. 2020 may have been one of the most challenging years any of us remember. We see opening our new Athletic Field as one way to continue our Archdiocese call to share our faith, to strengthen Catholic education in Michigan and to offer a resource that will mean so much to our children and countless others in the years to come.
