The River
Street Project is coming along, slowly.
Most of the work is done. We
still have to fill in along the back of the field, and are looking for another
1000 yards (or so) of fill. We have to
get that leveled off for a River Walk sidewalk that will follow the tree-line. We'll be picking rocks again in the spring, before the first cut.
Now, we have
to pay for the project. Cost of the work
done so far has exceeded $40,000. We've
had some fantastic contributions, and are excited and thank full to have so
many fine businesses and citizens participating in this project. If you would like to make a donation, please
feel free to call the club, e-mail, or simply send in a check (P.O. Box 114).
NUSC offers those players who want to make a stronger commitment to their
development within the game that opportunity for a more intense soccer experience.
