[/ QUOTE ] If that was going to happen, I would think it would have happened in the late 90's when the Shott Foundation paid for the renovations to Mitchell Stadium. That gift was MUCH larger than the 300k or so that was put up for the fieldturf. Incidentally, isn't June Oblinger Shott a graham girl? Someone told me she was.....

buzzsawBeaver 12 Report Share Posted June 1, 2007 From the "rumor" that I was told it's the field that might be renamed from chamra field to perhaps shott field or something, but I don't know. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KINGPIN 10 Report Share Posted June 1, 2007 Bluefield mayor Mitchell. Not sure of the first name.. They just named it Mitchell Stadium after the current mayor. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hacker 82 Report Share Posted June 1, 2007 Considering the Stadium was named in the 1930's and the current Mayor is named Gary Moore, that can not be correct. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bogeavers 10 Report Share Posted June 1, 2007 I went up to Mitchell yesterday and they have finally begun some work. They were ripping the fence down and taking some sod up. Kinda sad to see it go, but the turf will be amazing. They have started nearly a month late and I don't know when that will put their finish date, but they will be done before the Grid-O-Rama. They also have the digital display up above the scoreboard that will run names of the starting lineups and other information. Can't wait to see all the new stuff in action.

edrforshey 27 Report Share Posted June 1, 2007 They can lay the turf in about 7 days. Its all the other stuff, like moving fences, perparing the ground and drainage under the turf that takes so long. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
