| Comments:
Bowerman track renovation program funds must be matched in some amount
by other contributors. Recipients of a Bowerman Track Renovation
Grant are encouraged, but not required, to use Nike Grind technology to
resurface their track. Nike Grind material is made of recycled athletic
shoes sliced and ground into rubber granules. To date, 5 Bowerman track
projects have used Nike Grind in state-of-the-art surfaces each consisting
of approximately 75,000 recycled athletic shoes. A committee of Nike
representatives meets to review eligible, completed proposals in January,
March, June and September. Decisions are shared with applicants approximately
30 days following the meeting. |
