TO ME THE GLASS IS ALWAYS HALF FULL
Re: Volunteer Weekend Updates
Coach Bustle is the one pushing the RED, maybe because how good the RED with the White letters trimmed in black just below the Sky Boxes looks!!!
I was also for the White or Tanish wall with black/red letters. I understand and agree that the Red will fade.
I suggest giving Coach Bustle and/or Gerald a call and state your concerns. Also hopefully one way or another you will all be able to make it out to Volunteer Days as the Food/Fun/Friends will be second to none!!!!!!!!
DaddyCajun!!
Re: Volunteer Weekend Updates
I Wish my schedule would have allowed me to make it last night. You would have heard me say <i>I am totally against painting ANYTHING red</i>
For me it is "VERMILION or BUST" ;)

I think a vermilion wall will look good.
It is only 5 feet tall with grey cement above and grass below, and hopefully white banners everywhere.
Now if we painted it white, a contrasting Vermilion banner would be real hard to come by.

The inside of the tunnel was painted almost a decade ago.
The slab over the pumps was painted 2 years ago. <center>
Re: volunteer update/complaining
Oldman I agree!! You and I and several others have been at the meetings every Thursday for the past (3)THREE. Many things were discussed some of which have not been posted yet. IF BACKERS WANT TO COMPLAIN THEN GET INVOLVED BEYOND THIS BOARD. IF YOU ARE INVOLVED(IN ANY WAY SHAPE OR FORM) THEN YOU HAVE A RIGHT TO COMPLAIN!!
YES YOU MAY HAVE A RIGHT TO COMPLAIN, BUT WITH AS MANY GREAT THINGS IN THE WORKS AND THOSE THAT HAVE BEEN DONE, WE COLLECTIVELY NEED TO USE OUR ENERGIES TO CONTINUE MOVING FORWARD NOT BICKER LIKE A BUNCH OF OLD HENS!!!!!!!!!
WE ARE LOUISIANA'S RAGIN CAJUNS, NOT THE BICKERING HENS!!!!!
COME ON LADIES AND GENTLEMEN, IT IS CALLED SACRIFICE. WE ALL HAVE FAMILIES, JOBS, SCHOOL, ETC. NO ONE IS ASKING YOU TO GIVE ALL YOUR TIME OR MONEY!!! AN HOUR HERE AND THERE ON VOLUTEER WEEKEND AND BOOM YOU HAVE HELPED, IT IS A FEELING YOU WON'T SOON FORGET!!!!!!!
NOT UPSET, JUST ASKING FOR A LITTLE MORE INVOLVEMENT, AND POSITIVE SPEAK!!
DADDYCAJUN!
V4 - Volunteers That Can Not Make The Weekend....
CAN CALL ME AND I WILL BE AT TENNIS AND TRACK PRESSURE WASHING DURING THE WEEK ONE DAY AS I MYSELF CAN ONLY MAKE HALF THE WEEKEND DUE TO WORK.
GIVE ME SOME HEADS UP SO I KNOW HOW MANY PRESSURE WASHERS TO GET!
PROBALLY LOOKING AT EITHER TUESDAY, WEDNESDAY, OR THURSDAY!!
..O.. DADDY :h: CAJUN .~.
ps I have a company thru a friend that is measuring and looking at replacing the Roof over the Tennis Court Grandstand. We were scheduled to repaint it only to find it is rusting out in places, and would be better to just replace it.

And what a great job the two guys who painted the slabs did, don't you think?
We've got oilfield equipment at our shop that we paint with the same red paint we used on the slab and it never turns pink.

I don't know this looks pretty good. Just change the orange to red. What ya think?

Re: Volunteer Weekend Updates
I think the above example shows the look we should go for. We have to do things to make our identity stick when they visit the stadium. The vermillion trim helps us do that.
Re: Volunteer Weekend Updates
Our stadium is bland & blah. Old looking concrete everywhere. The red painted rim will make the field "jump out" and if we can follow this up with "Ragin Cajuns" & "Louisiana" all over it in white with black trim it will be awsome. It will show up in every picture, film clip, and highlight in the newspaper and television. This is the project that I will be working on and I plan on being there "the whole time"! Beau Cajun & I painted the pump house cover. It went fast & it still looks good. Gerald did the reasearch to get the "right" paint. This is a perfect project for work days because it is labor intensive and it is something everyone can do.
You want to be there on "The Day The Vermilion Flowed Through Cajun Field!"
The other teams will now see red baby! :hot:
