We were thinking of adding two subterranean parking lot levels. This would allow us to use the surface to place our school addition, and were also not affecting the surrounding structures. Inside our pavilion we will have two floors and two sepreate sections. The largest section is going to be a sports area containing an indoor track, a basketball court, volleyball court, and a small spectating area. The second largest area is going to be on the opposite side of the whole building, and it will be composed of one floor of weight room. Connecting these two sections is also going to be two small to medium size locker rooms, one side for male and the other for female. This will reduce the crowdedness in our current gymnasium facilities and give the schools indoor sports teams to have more space to practice and train in a larger more efficient area. The floor of the weight room will be made of recycled cork because it absorbs the shock of the weights to not make a lot noise when dropping them. The weights will be made of recycled metals and rubbers. The majority of our exterior walls will be made of glass in order to use natural sunlight inside the building and would require less light and electricity indoors.

It needs to be spacious and cool so we need to plant big trees to provide good shelter and air to students. - Marla Ahlgrimm
