2007-08 Volunteer Days

[USLJim]

Guys it is CRUNCH TIME. We only had 10 or 12 guys today and not enough pressure washers. We lost one for tommorrow and mine died, anyone want to shoot the sucker for me.
We need more people and 5 pressure washers or more for tommorrow to finish up. We also could use water hoses also. What is left is Front 2 high sections, we are pressure washing the entrance way, getting up the mold and mildew from the front walk way entrance. We washed the box seat around behind home plate now we need to pressure wash the grand stand area, seats first and walkup aisle.Coach is very pleased so far. We did not even pickup trash at Soccer/Track area. It is littered really bad. Mardi Gras stuff.
SO I appeal to your spirit, help us get this finished for Fan and Opening day.

Just to let you know, some told me UL Maintenance lost 7 employees and with the hiring freeze put on Universities, it doesn't look promising to rehire them anytime soon. Information told to me today, so let's help UL maintenance with one less chore to do.

Thanks to all of you Cajun Fans who could make it today. They did one heck of a job.

Quite a bit was accomplished today at the Tigue. Almost all of the light colored high area outside the stadium (badly stainded with mold) was pressure washed and looks good. My hat is off to the guy that spent all day up there pressure washing. Most of the concrete outside of the stadium and the entrance is now clean. Both bathrooms were washed from top to bottom with clorox (my apologies to the girl that I suprised in there), they have never been cleaner. The brick wall behind home plate was pressure washed from end to end and is sparkling. The ramps to the bleachers on both sides were cleaned and look great.

We had a large radio broadcasting the women's game from Ruston. Our two freshmen pitchers were outstanding.

Tony came by often and was extremely pleased.

I can't be there tomorrow, but I left my pressure washer (4000 psi) for someone else to use. There are 6 or 7 hose hookups at the Tigue, so there is room for a few more pressure washers. I encourage anyone who wants to help, to round up a pressure washer (and a hose) and go out there tomorrow and help finish the job. The Tigue has never looked better.

Sorry I couldn't make it, my hat goes off to all those who did.

You deserve a round of applause and appreciation.

I got back in town about 4:30 today (Sunday) and stopped by the Tigue to pick up my pressure washer and WOW!. Whoever was there today did one heck of a job! Tony was still there and he was very happy with all of the work. The Tigue is looking awsome, can't wait for fan day (16th) and opening day!!

Sick kids so I didn't make it out at all this weekend.

[USLJim]

I would like to thank all those who were able to come out this weekend to help out.
It was pretty much a good weekend, however, not enough able bodied workers to finish or meet our goals. The Front walkways and Front of Grandstands were cleaned and pressure washed. The Grand Stand Seating area was also cleaned. It is amazing how much mold and mildew can overcome a stadium.

We were only able to pick up trash at Track/soccer.
All in all, we got rid of a lot of mold & mildew .
Thanks again to those who helped out and to those who could not make it, Next time.

UslJim, does the Tigue have areas that still need pressure washing? If so is it feasable to do it this week after work say 6 to 9 pm I was out of town till late yesterday. If more pressure washing is needed I may be able to put in a few nights after work. Pls advise


Thx
