I believe rumors were that they would start end of May so maybe somebody has had a chance to see if they started (remember the grand opening of the new TRBC/4th of July celebration in in about a month)

[Guest]

Look for the old carpet to start being taken up this coming week.

[bigsmooth]

I forgot my hard-hat so i did not go inside...maybe next week.

[Sly Fox]

Outstanding! Thanks for the pics. The place is coming along great.

[SuperJon]

That's gonna look amazing, especially with the new turf.

[PAmedic]

thats impressive looking- can't wait to see it this fall.

[Libertine]

Officially, turf work is scheduled to start today.

[Libertine]

OK, as of 1:22 PM, the turf guys aren't even in sight. My handy-dandy camera, however, is and I've got a few new pics of the INTERIOR of the Ops Center. Bear in mind, they just started framing up walls in the last two days and no lighting has been installed yet so you'll probably have to use your imagination a little bit here.

Exterior shots:


This is the view of the building from the field. The brick work is actually complete. The rest of the exterior wall will be white stucco.


This the front exterior (facing the road and David's place). Workers are adding steel framework for a front veranda much like exists on the front of DeMoss.


Random construction worker. This is mostly for Brokeback's benefit. All we need now is a cop and an Indian chief.

Interior shots:
Basement


Here's where you get to use that imagination. This is the weight room / speed training room. This area makes up nearly the entire basement of the facility and I was standing in the southwest corner of the room for this picture. To the left of the support beams will be the weight room and, on the right, the speed training area w/ its own turf .

Ground floor


The training room. Those big boat-looking things are actually enormous tubs that will sit in the floor against the back wall.


The players' lounge.


The locker room. It's actually larger than what you see but I couldn't get back far enough to fit the whole thing into frame. It's roughly the same square-footage size as our current locker room, but it's oriented more centrally as opposed to our current one which is really stretched out.

Second floor


View from the head coach's office window. You know it's the head coach's office because it's the only office w/ its own bathroom attached.


View from the Multi-Purpose Room.


That's it for today. Hopefully, as work progresses I'll be able to get some more shots that make a little more sense.

[Sly Fox]

Two thumbs way up for the pics. Its come a long way since its status as a muddy ditch just a couple of months ago.

[LUconn]

wow, that is much bigger than I was expecting. Defintaly a good view from the multipurpose room. Now if we got a new scoreboard, connected the 2 sides with seats, *cough* and filled it with people *cough* that would be a good place to sit recruits and their parents. Or anybody else we're trying to impress.

[PAmedic]

Fantastic! much larger now that it has definition. Where does the PAmedic Box Seating Section go? Probably on the roof so I don't have SCARs big head to look around.

[A.G.]

Here's your Indian:

[A.G.]

and SCAR, as your cop

[Brokeback Flamer]

My heart is throbbing. A construction worker smoking a fag (that is what smokes USED to be called) Then to top it off with a picture of SCAR in the policeman's outfit. I wonder if he stole that from one of the cops at the scene of his accident. Now if we could only get PAMED in HIS uniform, what with that 'stache and all!!!

I'm not sure but I think I just threw up in my mouth a little bit.

[PAmedic]

Brokeback please contain yourself- but later in the day, the guys all assembled out there just for your benefit- and I happened to catch it. Here ya go:

[SuperJon]

Somebody learned how to use Photoshop.

[PAmedic]

actually- too cheap- just knocked that one out in 10 min on Microsoft paint

wait til ya see my encore over in the other thread

[SuperJon]

I already did.

[TIMSCAR20]

I couldn't see the picture. Sometimes pix are blocked from this computer at work. I am sure I looked great in the Cop's uniform Medic, don't worry about seeing around my big head because they will be giving out Flames Club high chairs so you little guys can see

[Guest]

Hilarious!!! Good laugh for the day!! (someone has waaaaaaaaaaaaaay too much time on their hands) =)

[A.G.]

Found the one of Medic with the 'stache:
