WebCam of Stadium Construction
The City of Rochester has recently allocated $3.6 million for the construction of an all-season, artificial-turf athletic field and stadium on the UCR campus. Local interests have also committed $750,000 toward this project. Consideration is being given to raise additional private dollars to upgrade the project - to increase seating capacity, add locker rooms, audio-visual features, and other enhanced design elements.
"When the new Regional Stadium is complete, Rochester Community and Technical College will be one of only a few technical colleges in the nation with a stadium of this caliber"
Brad LaPlante, RCTC head football coach.
Regional football and soccer stadium will feature a domed bubble for year-round use:

That is why a bubble will be added, for year-round enjoyment!
