The Daily Bruin

The last Genesis of the summer for our incoming new students will take place this Friday, July 9.

Other parking options include the Bauman and Pennington lots, Sheridan and North streets, and the campus side of Meridian Street. Please help us welcome our new students with vacant parking lots.

Thanks!

Thanks to 131 donors who gave gifts to the Austin Sports Complex ranging from $5 to $25,000 since Oct. 16, 2009, we have raised the $250,000 needed by June 30 to match the gift by an anonymous donor. Among those who gave were graduating seniors, George Fox employees, alumni, board members and other friends of the university.

To date, we have raised nearly $2.1 million toward our $6.5 million fundraising goal for Phase I of the Austin Sports Complex. This is a three-year effort, and we hope to raise another third of our goal (approximately $2.5 million) in 2010-11.

Phase I calls for the development of 11 of the 23 acres of land through construction of a synthetic turf soccer field, a multi-use synthetic turf field, and a multi-use field building. Progress on the project is well underway. The general contractor, The Saunders Co., is overseeing the installation of the first synthetic Astro Turf GameDay Grass MT45 field this week, so it will be ready for soccer this fall.

For more information or to participate in the campaign, visit the Austin Sports Complex page.

Back by popular demand, we are pleased to announce that the Villa Cafe has reopened for the summer. Please join us for a steaming cup of Starbucks coffee, freshly baked pastries, fresh fruit smoothies, hand-crafted deli and panini sandwiches and our popular homemade soups. We also feature a full array of delicious grab-and-go sandwiches and salads made fresh daily.

Summer hours are Monday through Friday, 7:30 a.m. to 1:30 p.m. Convenient payment options include cash (always), credit and debit as well as our popular Bruin Bucks. If you have a university ID card, just ask our cashier how you can get an additional 10 percent in buying power.
