When will the gym be completed and how many seats will be added? GW holds right around 1100, will be the nicest gym on this side of the state when completed.
Will the next track construction move any football games until completion? Thank y’all in advance.

Ground broken for renovations, new track at Danville's George Washington High School

GW high school was built in 1955, nearly 70 years ago.

GW will be one of the nicest facilities in the state. Not many have the stadium with the view that it does. I SAID IT, the stadium will be better than Salem’s once the track is laid down, painted and given some TLC. The gym has an old school vibe and with more seats, it’ll be up there with Franklin County, PH and Fleming. The new track will rejuvenate the track program. Just awesome all the way around for the city.

GW and Galileo (who will move into the Langston school building) will benefit from this track. Would be a great location for a Southside Track Classic. You got all 4 county schools, plus the Piedmont District schools, and then others would come down. It would make a good amount of money for the area. Also with Averett starting an Indoor and Outdoor Track program, it would be a great chance to recruit.

I’m looking for Averett to do what Emory and Henry did and jumping ship to D2 soon. Talk about putting Danville on another level.

They still got a little time to do that. Averett is now just getting ready to join the ODAC in 2022, replacing Emory and Henry's vacant conference spot.

From my understanding it is a strong chance that GW will not have any home football games in 2022.

I heard ramblings of that to but didn’t really trust the source. Hopefully Averett let’s them use their facility.

That is still up in the air at this point. The contractors say we will, but I have had enough bad experiences to know that isn't always the case.
