The City of Wheat Ridge is very excited about the upcoming remodel of Wheat Ridge High School. I wanted to give you and update on the fund raising efforts that have occurred concerning the two new synthetic turf fields.

Estimated cost of two synthetic fields At 32nd/Holland St. (upper fields): $600,000

Contributions (Actual or Committed):
Community - $22,000
City of Wheat Ridge - $50,000
Wheat Ridge Rotary - $15,000
Wheat Ridge 2020 - $20,000
Wheat Ridge Optimist - $500
Jefferson County School District -$150,000
Jefferson County Open Space - $300,000 (Pending IGAs between all parties)

Total Committed Funds: $557,500

Remaining funding needed: $42,500

The two new synthetic fields at Wheat Ridge High School will cost a total of $600,000 based on the estimates acquired by the Wheat Ridge High School athletic staff. The field committee will continue to pursue the final funding. We are almost there!!

Basically, 10 more donations at $5000 or 20 more donations of $2500 and we can finish the two upper fields. If you would like to make a tax deductible donation please make checks payable to:
