Great update. Took some screenshots of some of the new renderings if people (like me) like to look at those. Really cool stuff.
Jamie Pollard "State of the Union" Address for Dept.
- Thread starter BigJCy
- Start date
I'm guessing the new RV lot will be something similar to Tiger Lane down at the Liberty Bowl. If I remember right the cost of that was about $10M.
Just one small point
The department didn't have to educate and feed and protect our student athletes
They had the honor of educating, feeding, and protecting those folks.

I'm sure that the RV spots will be used almost year around for people attending various functions on campus. It's a very popular thing to travel in your motorhome/RV to conferences, seminars, visiting, award ceremonies, as well as continuing education/adult ed classes, other athletic events, parent's days, etc. It could bring a nice stream of revenue to the Athletic Dept. Jamie doesn't miss a beat to capitalize on something to help ISU.
Also I know of friends from out of state who bring their motorhome to area RV Parks (Saylorville comes to mind) a couple of days before a game just to extend their trip, then stay in the RV donor lots tailgating for the weekend of the game (and we've done it ourselves). They do it also for stays after the game for a few days. Those days could be spent at the ISU RV Park and would generate a lot of income.

I LOVE LOVE LOVE that they are moving the entertainment district closer to the CY/Hilton area. That's where the hotel will be. And basketball and meeting space is used year-round!
We are so lucky to have Jamie leading this ship

We would stay there when visiting central Iowa for sure. We can go about a week without a sewer.
Yeah I would have to think these things will be open year round to rent with football weekends blocked off.
More-or-less announced a new deal/extension for Campbell.
Yay!
Doubt it. They're going to say your tickets are $XXXX this year. Last year you deferred YYYY. You will owe ZZZZ to renew your tickets. If you choose not to renew I'm guessing they'll refund the money.
Yep, and I know that kcbob has observed the same thing that we have as we travel the country. A lot of venues build their own RV Parks as a money maker and/or as a convenience for their customers to attract business. We have used a lot of them ourselves. Casinos, water parks, amusement parks, US military bases, Universities, RV dealerships and manufacturers, etc., etc., have their own RV Parks. Some good nearby examples are Adventureland/Prairie Meadows, the Osceola Casino, World's of Fun in Kansas City, the water park/casino in Waterloo, etc.

6% increase for JTC tickets. Around 20%-25% increase for everyone else... Don't love those optics. I wonder if there is resistant in raising JTC levels to near $2000??
On a dollar per game difference it pretty low for everyone
Having 3 season camping options near campus will be a home run!!! Especially in a post-COVID germ sensitive world.
