Introducing the Roadrunner Champions Fund!
We have established this annual fund to support our ongoing improvements to our facilities. You can support this effort with a tax deductible gift on our
Campain Page.
We are conducting this 2025 Facilities Improvement Campaign to help generate financial support for important facilities updates and enhancements to better serve our student-athletes. We appreciate any amount you can give and thank you in advance for your generous support!
Overview of our Facilities Projects
We are excited for what lies ahead and want to invite you to join us as we engage in the most extensive facilities makeover in LB’s athletics history. The Roadrunner Champions Fund supports capital improvement projects.
This campaign will support the following projects already in motion and help us reach our fundraising goals. We ask you to consider a gift to support one or both of these projects.
ACTIVITIES CENTER GYM UPGRADES: A roof leak damaged our floor and an insurance claim will provide funding for replacement. However, we are taking this opportunity to upgrade several other components, including six new ceiling-mount retractable basketball hoops, a new protective floor covering system, new wall protective padding, volleyball post/netting storage system and several other cosmetic improvements. Additionally, the gym will be renamed for LB’s first basketball coach, Butch Kimpton, and appropriate signage will be installed on the exterior and interior of the gym.
BASEBALL TURF PROJECT: Our original plan to replace just our infield turf at Dick McClain Field was changed to include the entire field after four donors stepped up with major gifts to kickstart this project. In addition to replacing the infield turf, the entire field and foul territories will be turf. The project includes excavation and base preparation of the outfield and foul territories, and as well as repairs and upgrades to fencing, bullpens and dugouts.
Finally, if the timing isn’t right for you to make a gift and you may make a pledge of your support for a later date and/or over multiple payments up to three years. Please contact Mark Majeski (mark.majeski@linnbenton.edu) for details.
With your help we can continue to improve our facilities through The Roadrunner Champions Fund! You can donate here.
