Medway High School Track Project

The Issue
The track at Medway High School is original to the school's opening in 1949. Today it is overgrown with vegetation and is of limited use for training, intramural or competitive meets. In fact, track athletes are often having to pay to access outside facilities to train.
What we’re doing about it
The Ilderton & District Lions have taken on the task of raising funds to build a new 6-Lane Synthetic Track at the School. Through the generosity of the community, the Lions have raised sufficient funds to build the new track, long/triple jump and pole vault and most of the high jump area. The Thames Valley District School Board is putting in a new field for football, soccer and rugby. However, an additional $50,000 is needed to finish the high jump area with the synthetic coating.
Ground breaking for the track will be in June 2018.
You can join us
First of course, a financial donation of any size would be greatly appreciated.
Second, let your Medway friends and family know about the project; perhaps they are willing to contribute too.
Charitable Tax Receipts will be issued for donations over $25.00 from the Ilderton Lion Charitable Trust.
Donor Programs
Buy A Brick- Individuals, families or organizations that donate $500 or more will have their families recognized on a brick that will be included in the entrance to the new facility.
In School Donor Wall Recognition- Individuals, families or organizations donating $2500 or more will have their names inscribed on a donor wall within the school.
