Overview
The Trenton High School(THS) track and field complex has fallen into a state of disrepair. The track presents a major safety concern that prevents it from being utilized in the fashion for which it was intended i.e. physical education classes, sports training, track meets, exercise for disabled, walking, jogging, fitness testing (military, police, firefighters). THS has a population of 850 students both from the local community and also from CFB Trenton, many of whose parents are now serving in Afghanistan. Unfortunately, due to unsafe conditions, track meets can no longer be conducted here, thus forcing our team to travel, at increased expense, to other locations. Our local public school track and field championships are reluctantly conducted on the track since bussing costs to the next town to compete on a safer track is cost prohibitive. The Trenton High School Alumni Association is committed to seeing the project through to the finish line.
