Baseball and Track athletes at Mt. Pulaski have something to look forward to this year. 

According to Superintendent Jason Spang, the school board approved a proposal to build a new athletic facility in Veterans Park, last month. This will give them the ability to host sectional track meets and they plan to make improvements to the baseball field as well. 

Since the construction is scheduled to be from September to May, it bears the question, what happens if that deadline is not met? Spang says they plan to prioritize their projects, in order to keep things on track. 

Spang mentions the revenue for these projects comes from local taxes and the local wind farms. 

Spang says they adopted the budget, and went over threat assessments at the meeting as well. If you'd like to follow along with the projects, you can visit mtpulaski.k12.il.us or their Facebook page.
