What is the heavy equipment doing at WRAL Soccer Center? How nice is Daylight Savings Time?

Many have probably wondered what the large equipment is doing at WRAL Soccer Center. We found out last year that the property was a prime location for a cell tower. After some negotiations, some red tape and jumping through some proverbial hoops, a contract was signed. CASL will get a yearly sum for hosting this cell tower and the money earned will be used for one thing..........PAVING! As you have seen, we have repaved the main "U" road at the facility. The cell tower revenue will be used to pave more of the dirt road and more parking lots at the soccer center!
How bout DST.....Daylight Savings Time! I, for one, would rather wake up to the dark and get daylight longer into the evening. As a soccer league, it allows for better timing of practice schedules, reasonable start times for Sunday games and just an overall better soccer day. Some of that may be due to the March spring forward of the clocks also coincides with warmer weather! For whatever reason, I'm glad it is here!
