Website up and running for CHS donations

The Anderson County School Board has given officials at Clinton High School the go-ahead to start exploring the possibility of constructing a new multi-sport facility at no cost to taxpayers. As we have previously reported, the complex would measure some 12,000 square feet and be used as a practice facility for several sports as well as hosting volleyball matches and wrestling meets. The proposed project, spearheaded by CHS alumni, would also renovate the existing, but aging football fieldhouse, and include a second story with office space for coaches. A second and separate part of the proposed project would also renovate the Don Lockard Gymnasium. When the BOE gave its approval to the project, which will be funded entirely by private donations, it also gave approval to CHS to start accepting donations from the public. People can donate to either fund and that money can only be used for the specific project it is donated for. CHS was given permission by the School Board to �solicit donations, secure an architect, get bids from contractors, and return to the board to submit a final, formal proposal.� We will keep you updated on this project as it moves forward.  For more information or to donate to the multi-sport facility, visit www.cshslegacy.com.
