The Connor Wilson Memorial Turf Field @ Holly Grove Christian School is finally completed. We have had the opportunity to work on many great projects over the years but this field will always be the most cherished! Connor may not be here on earth with us but he will always be present with us on the pitch! He loved God, family, school, and soccer. What better way to honor him than to install something that every kiddo from HG can use.
This project was a team effort with a lot of people involved behind the scenes to help pull it off before school began. I would like to take this moment to thank the following individuals who played a role. Joe, Matt, & Martha from HG for helping with the logistics & details/layout. Eric from Somerset Pile Driving for delivering the bundle of 6x6s for the border. Sue & Eddie from Heath Crabpots for supplying the rebar stakes. Douglas, Todd, Kenny, & Jimmy from Reynolds Excavating for delivering all stone base material. Parker & Mark from Benton and Sons Grading & Seeding for the vibratory roller. Bryant, Denise, & Therman from Anderson Fence for supplying the galvanized fence posts for netting along the tree line. Daniel from HG for providing the icing on the cake with the perfect lines on the field👌🏼. We also had help from a few students (Wyatt, Conner, Ashton, Camden, & Crew) who wanted to be involved with this special project.
And last but not least I would also like to thank my Dad (Bruce Ramsay) for not only helping with the turf field but also donating all the material for the stone veneer on the front of the new HG gym. We ran out of time to complete everything so my guys and I prepped for the veneer but Rob Stegman & his guys did an excellent job completing the veneer installation.
