i. Donation Acceptance of $16,800 for the Modifications and Improvements to the Cross Country Trail at Lakeside High School (Not to exceed $16,800)

Summary: Presented by: Mrs. Jennifer Caracciolo, Deputy Communications Officer, Division of Community Engagement & Innovative Partnerships
Request: It is requested that the Board of Education accept the donation of $16,800 from the Lakeside High School Cross Country Booster Club as a one-time donation per Board Policy DFK “Gifts and Bequests Guidelines” for modifications and improvements to the cross-country trail on the Lakeside High School site.
Why: To allow the Lakeside High School Cross Country Booster Club to improve the cross-country trail located on the east side of the site and around the campus. All trail improvements will be on school district property.
Details: The Lakeside High School Cross Country Booster Club, along with the Lakeside Cross Country Team, seeks to refurbish Lakeside’s existing trail system to make it safer for everyone who utilizes it. The trail’s proposed route spans approximately 1.5 miles, with the 5k course comprising two loops. By rebuilding the on-campus trail, the Lakeside Cross Country Team will have a fantastic option for on-campus practices. Moreover, the trail will benefit other Lakeside teams who can use the trail for conditioning and will double as a community fitness asset. The trail envisions fostering both team development and community well-being. Ultimately, the trail will rejuvenate the school’s campus, utilizing currently underutilized areas.
Financial impact: The value of the donation is $16,800 and will be provided by the Lakeside High School Cross Country Booster Club.
