Marciniuk updates with latest photo tour

Construction action keeps gaining rapid momentum here at the Gordie Howe Sports Complex.

Crews have been busy out here building new buildings and working on improvements to the facility. Our Operations Manager Johnny Marciniuk took his latest photo tour on Friday, and he shows building are going up in quick order and improvements are being completed rapidly.

The crews working at the Gordie Howe Sports Complex have been doing outstanding work.

Marciniuk brought back nine pictures to show the progress that was made by the end of the week.

The first floor of the new Leakos Field press box is complete which will house electrical for the new field and lighting and storage. The second floor when complete will house announcers and scorekeeper and score clock operators.
