Fondy Set To Break Ground On New Stadium
The Fond du Lac School District is inviting the public to the groundbreaking ceremony of their new athletic stadium Fondy Field, at the Fond du Lac High School today at 10:00 am.
The new stadium will provide state-of-the-art facilities for students and enhance the school’s ability to host sporting events.
One of the biggest improvements will be the addition of a turf field. Fond du Lac is the last school in their conference to go to a turf field.
The new stadium also brings a new location, moving from Fruith Field on 9th Street which often flooded, to the high school campus.
The school passed a $5.3 million budget for the new stadium but after design plans were done, it was believed it could cost as much as $6 million. The balance of the money will come from donors and fund raising.
Completion of the project is scheduled for August.
The ceremony will take place on the current track and field located in the southwest corner of the Fond du Lac High School Campus.
All interested are encouraged to attend.
