The East Greenbush Central School District will be hosting a ribbon cutting ceremony for its new turf field and track on Tuesday, August 25 at 6:00 p.m. at Howard L. Goff Middle School. The new athletic complex behind Goff is part of Phase 1B of the “Building a Bright Future” Capital Project. In addition to the turf field and track, there are new courts for basketball and tennis/pickleball.
There will be brief remarks from Assistant Superintendent Lisa Mahar, Board of Education President Kim Turner, and former Superintendent Jeff Simons.
Once the ribbon is cut, attendees are invited to view the athletic venue and walk on the track.
The new turf field, track, and multipurpose courts will be utilized by students for physical education classes and interscholastic athletics. The track and courts will be open to the public when not in use by the school.
About the Capital Project
East Greenbush CSD voters approved the capital project during the Budget Vote and Board Election in May 2024. The project is anticipated to be completed in six different phases over the next four years due to the scope of the project, working around the school schedule, NYS Education Department timelines, and maximizing state building aid reimbursement to defray the overall cost for local taxpayers.
Other phases of the project include items such as replacement of HVAC systems for improved indoor air quality and adding air conditioning throughout all five elementary schools, classroom additions at elementary schools, library renovations in all schools, new playgrounds, athletic field improvements, upgrades to sidewalks and parking lots, and infrastructure improvements at all schools.
Current work also includes renovation of the Goff library, replacement of the Red Mill playground, sewer line, and boilers, repairs to Red Mill masonry, and asbestos abatement.
