Dome Refurbishments Update
Just saw this on the 36ers website:
Distinctive Homes Dome refurbishment
11/AUG/2007 The Distinctive Homes Dome is currently undergoing major refurbishments in preparation for the coming NBL season, but also so that the Dome may be used for many other events such as corporate shows, product launches, networking, conferences, banquets, etc and become a multi-purpose venue.
The new Cube Scoreboard and PA system have been ordered but take over 12 weeks to get here by boat, and then another 4 weeks to build once it arrives.
The changes are very exciting and below we have listed what you can expect to see over the coming months:
Over 40 new plasma screens throughout the venue - Completed
New Corporate Entrance - Completed by mid October
Completely refurbished Championship Suites - Completed by start of NBL season
New Sound System - Installed by beginning of December
New Audio Visual Equipment - Installed by beginning of December
New Scoring Cube - Installed by beginning of December
Re-surfaced court - Completed Now
New Backboards - Due in time for the start of the NBL season
New locker rooms - Completed
New gym with EFM - Completed
New Legends Lounge - Completion around end October
Completely repainted through-out - internally - due in time for start of NBL season
Upgraded Bathrooms - Completed
Upgraded Bars - Completed before start of NBL season
Upgraded back of house facilities including change rooms
Upgraded signage and lighting throughout - due in time for start of NBL season
It all looks great but I didn't realise that quite a few things won't be finished before the start of the season.
