Football Locker Room Refresh
The Football Locker Room Refresh

Bobby Gray Football Fieldhouse is undergoing a refresh that started with the installation of heading and air units, in October of 2022. With improved climate control and air circulation, the next major update to the facility is replacing the lockers.

The fieldhouse originally built in the 1960’s, has been home to the Football Program, and has had many well known players walk through the doors. With the addition of 130 new lockers, it will greatly enhance the student-athlete experience.

The Football Locker Room Refresh endeavors to raise $130,000 for 130 new lockers. A challenging $20,000 gift has been made to launch this campaign leaving $110,000 and 110 lockers to be purchased.

Contribute to a Locker

Each gift, large or small, will be used to give the Bobby Gray Fieldhouse a refresh. Will you make an impact today?

Naming Opportunity 

Gifts of $1,000 or more includes naming a locker in memory or in honor of someone. If you are a former player you can include your name, number, graduation year and position. If you are a fan or alumni of Chowan you can choose for it to say, given by, in honor, or in memory of a name with the graduation year (if applicable).
