Rosalia receives hoop court

ROSALIA

Garco Construction crews are at work installing an outdoor basketball court on the playfield of the Rosalia School. The court has been awarded to Rosalia by the Spokane Hoopfest Board and Northwest Basketball Camp, according to Terry Boxleitner, Rosalia athletic director.

He said Garco crews donate their time on the project and slate work hours when they are in limbo from other jobs in the area. The court will be under full size, but it will have hoops at each end and feature a decorative paint job.

Boxleitner said Danny Beard, director of Northwest Basketball Camps, contacted the school to determine their interest in having a court installed. He said the court is presented to the town, but it has been located on school grounds for easy access to school students after hours and for security.

Mike Day Monday underwent arthroscopic surgery on a knee in Spokane and is now recovering at home. Joe Griffin is manning the Texaco Station while Day recovers.
