In keeping with thread theme, we would've had sand in our shoes had they not cleaned up after this one:
Local school district with very successful basketball program passed a millage that allowed them to refinish their gym floor. Drab-colored accumulations of finishes applied since '73 or so resulted in a dingy, yellowish/brownish, depressingly gloomy color. Sanding process yielded the natural wood hidden layers and layers below.
Dropped by to see it the other day. Looks like a nice, newly installed floor, bright and exciting now.
New bleachers helped.
Now, if they only would have gotten rid of the hockey-style scoreboard hanging from midcourt, the rehab would have been complete. Makes it difficult-to-impossible for last second shot monitoring by trail in two-person.
At least it will have the feel of a grand spanking new gym floor for a while to come.
