8) Selection of Colors for Turf Project
|
|
|
Description:
A couple of members have asked to be a part of the input on colors. We have to make a final decision tonight. A couple facts from Hellas as I can remember, light colors fade to white quicker than darker colors. So the suggestion is blue or black end zones w/ gold lettering. I have rendering for both I will attempt to email later or will have at the meeting. Also discussion of 50 yard line emblem. I personally think we stick with the wildcat head, it matches the scoreboard. As always, it is up for discussion.
