色花堂app

Just ask her professors at 色花堂app and the residents of the southwest Idaho community of Marsing where construction will begin this spring on a ticket booth at the entrance to the high school football field. Pierce is spearheading the drive to complete the project.

鈥淭his means so much to us. It鈥檚 the kind of project that can build pride in a community,鈥� said Marsing High School principal and athletic director, Tim Little.

Little and Pierce came up with the idea for the ticket booth last spring. Pierce had contacted him by email, explaining she was a student enrolled in ISU鈥檚 athletic administration program and wanted to work on a project to benefit the school and complete her master鈥檚 degree. Her professors had already given her the green light to move forward.

Why Marsing High? Well, Pierce鈥檚 brother Danny played football there years earlier and she wanted to give back to a program that had given her family so much.

鈥淥ur family has a lot of memories and attachment to the high school. Every Friday night we knew we鈥檇 go to a football game and even travel to the out-of-town games,鈥� Pierce said, noting she and her siblings grew up in central California with limited opportunities to play school sports until moving to Idaho in 2006.

After Pierce and Little decided on the booth, Pierce tackled the project head on. Using computer software, she designed a booth prototype, handled publicity, raised funds and secured vendors, including a Marsing steel business whose owner agree to donate some of the construction materials.

Pierce sold 65 engraved bricks at $100 a pop鈥攅ach engraved with the donor鈥檚 name and a brief message of support for the Marsing Huskies. She exceeded the number needed to finance the $5,000 project. The bricks will line the walking path to the ticket booth which will measure 6 feet by 8 feet.

Little admits he wasn鈥檛 certain Pierce could pull off the project when she first approached him, but his doubts quickly evaporated as she met her goals. 鈥淪he is a true professional,鈥� he said.

Her professors agree. 鈥淭his is an incredible example of how our students are giving back to the community,鈥� said Caroline Faure, professor of sports science, who with associate professor, Howard Gauthier, approved Pierce鈥檚 project for graduate credit.

The community will celebrate the booth鈥檚 completion next August with a ribbon cutting, just in time for football season.

 As for Pierce, who completed her Master of Physical Education degree in athletic administration in December, she鈥檇 like to serve as an athletic director at the collegiate level someday.

鈥淚鈥檝e seen what athletics can do for students. The perseverance behind it and all of the life skills a student athlete develops,鈥� she said.

No doubt she can achieve her goal, says Gauthier, who taught Pierce in his research, leadership and sports marketing classes at ISU-Meridian.

 鈥淚鈥檝e never met a student more organized. She has a high deal of integrity and will undoubtedly have an outstanding career,鈥� he said.
