A plan is in place for remodeling the Kibbie Dome<br />

to better suit the needs <strong>of</strong> its student-athletes. In<br />

September <strong>2008</strong>, <strong>Idaho</strong> student-athletes began<br />

to enjoy state-<strong>of</strong>-the-art athletic training and<br />

equipment rooms, as well as three newly-constructed<br />

classrooms.<br />

The first phase was remodeling the old shop and<br />

constructing a 120-seat classroom and two 20-seat<br />

classrooms.<br />

Next up was the remodel <strong>of</strong> the athletic training<br />

facility and equipment room. The athletic training<br />

room almost doubled in size with an increase <strong>of</strong> 1,680<br />

square feet for a total 3,520. Approximately 1,600<br />

square feet was added to the equipment room for a<br />

total <strong>of</strong> just more than 4,100.<br />

“Upgrading our facilities is <strong>of</strong> utmost importance<br />

for our student-athletes and the entire <strong>Idaho</strong> athletic<br />

department,” Director <strong>of</strong> <strong>Athletics</strong> Dr. Rob Spear said.<br />

“Constant facility improvement is a vital piece in our<br />

goal <strong>of</strong> becoming a premier athletic department.”<br />
