Come and get this for 𝐅𝐑𝐄𝐄! Strips of the old track will be hauled off in the next couple weeks. We have had several people come and get pieces of it and we would love to give away more of it to our community members!
𝐏𝐎𝐒𝐒𝐈𝐁𝐋𝐄 𝐔𝐒𝐄𝐒
~ Momento for alumni track athletes
~ Padded mat for those who stand on concrete all day at work
~ Door Mats
~ Weed/grass barrier around trees and in garden rows
~ Padding for animals/pets
Let us know in the comments if you can think of other uses!
The track is made from a compacted rubber-type material and you can cut it to your desired size with a Sawzall or fine-toothed hacksaw.
This is heavy stuff, so bring help to load it! If you call in advance, we may be able to arrange for our school maintenance crew to help you load some during work hours with our Skidsteer. (Monday through Thursday 8:00am - 3:30pm.) Call the district office if you have questions or would like to arrange for school help to load it. (208-663-4542) Otherwise, come and load it yourself at a time that is convenient for you . It is located in the parking lot between the football field and the Panther Den.
We hope to haul away the remaining pieces before the football season starts, so don't wait too long!
