On the heels of the announcement of Cougar Alumni Field last week comes an opportunity for the Cougar faithful to leave their mark on Eggerss Stadium with the Legacy Paver Program.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This program consists of offering three different size pavers where fans, alumni, supporters, and businesses, can create a personal message of tribute, honor, or just about anything that relates to support of Cougar athletics.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cImagine walking through the future grand entrance at the south end and seeing all the names and messages right in front of you from generations of Cougar supporters\u201d, said John White, Legacy Campaign Chair. \u201cThe great thing is these paver tributes will remain until the stadium is no longer in use. Without a doubt, this will be decades into the future.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Orders are now being accepted for pavers that will be placed at the new grand entrance at the south end of historic Cougar Alumni field at Eggerss Stadium.<\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n

The size of each paver will dictate the letter size and amount of information that will be captured. In addition, each large paver will include a Cougar Head graphic with the medium including a Cougar Paw.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cWith the goal of the stadium to be used for a variety of events sporting and non-sporting, we encourage all Cougar fans to participate in this once in a lifetime offering\u201d, said Mark Bagley, Superintendent of Van Wert City Schools.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Once again, it\u2019s an exciting time for Van Wert Athletics as the stadium renovation continues to progress through several phases. The grand entrance will likely be completed in the summer of 2026 as the final phase of the project.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n
