BOULDER – The University of Colorado plans to break ground May 12 on several new athletics facilities and upgrades to Folsom Field after a record-breaking year of private donations.
In the past seven months, the athletic department has made significant progress on the fundraising goals and anticipates meeting that goal in the very near future. Completion of the majority of the project is expected prior to the fall 2015 football season.
CU will celebrate this announcement during halftime of the spring football game on April 12. The game, covered live by the Pac-12 Network, will kickoff at 12 p.m. at Folsom Field. The ceremony will feature remarks from CU President Bruce Benson, CU-Boulder Chancellor Phil DiStefano, Athletic Director Rick George and two student-athletes, Juda Parker (football) and Clare Wise (skiing).
