About the Department:

Our Grounds crew is charged with the maintenance and apperance of our 182 acre campus. The campus includes approx. 75 acres of lawn and athletic fields, 50 acres of woodland and 27 acres of walks, stairs, parking lots and roadways.  In early 1999, we divided the campus into zones.  The crew is also responsible for facilitating campus moves, event set-ups and break downs as well as many other tasks.
