Northwest Iowa Community College recently issued the following announcement.
North Star Community Credit Union is pleased to announce their $50,000 contribution towards the turf facility upgrade. The turf upgrade will be located on the current Sheldon CSD football field, and is a collaborative project between the Sheldon Community School District, Northwest Iowa Community College and the City of Sheldon.
“The people of Sheldon have been so great welcoming us into the community,” says Jeff Hayes, President/CEO of North Star Community Credit Union. “We are happy to have the opportunity to contribute back to this project.”
The new playing surface will be used for the Sheldon CSD football team, soccer program and the marching band. Additionally, Northwest Iowa Community College will be utilizing the grounds when they begin their intercollegiate soccer program, which is slated to begin in Fall 2024.
Fundraising for the project began this summer, and has a goal to be completed by December 31, 2021. Groundbreaking for the project is slated to begin in Spring 2022, with use by the Sheldon CSD in the Fall of 2022.
