New Turf on Cajun Field

[McNeese72]

_ Just found out that when STM first started the installation the company was named Pro-Green . By the end of installation Pro-Green switched to the name Geosport. Looks like we were both right. On a seconded note, the rubber has more longevity and is truly a better investment creating much more cost then sand. Over time the sand will get solid and almost act like concrete instead of grass. _

How come there is another company named ProGreen with their own website?

And I can't find any evidence online of the two companies ever been related.

Pro-Green did not go out of business, just a majority of there top men broke of to start Geosport (just learning this myself). Sorry Crawfish, had to make things right.

Okay, that sounds like might of what happened. I found a story of when Ark St was first putting in their turf and they referred to it as Pro-Green at first.

_ a young high school soccer player? must be true.. can't get much higher up than that.. (big grins.. just couldn't help myself) _

He does play on it , what do you do sniff it. Don't be a jerk, I was just committing on someone who has played on it and does not like it. THen I talked to Scott Farmer and he concurred what I knew.

It's ok. When we were in Omaha for the series, we went to Lincoln and my son played on the field at Nebraska. He was 8 at the time and he liked it. He said it was soft and like real grass. But, after a while he got hot because of the rubber filling. He had to quit running and we had to get him a glass (sorry bottle of 99% pure) water.

I sure hope we get sand.

The turf will be sand filled

are you talking sand as the bottom layer for leveling?

or all sand like La Monroe's?

[snote]

will not get as hot in the sun as the turf with rubber pellets.

we talking about the temp at the feet level? heat at knee to waist? waist and above temp?
