Lyndon Institute is proud to announce the completion of its new basketball court floor in Alumni Gymnasium. The original floor, installed in 1965, had reached the end of its life and could not effectively be resurfaced.  Construction began in the summer of 2020 with funds made available through a donor’s generosity.

“Alumni Gymnasium has received a major refurbishment. Through the graciousness and generosity of a loving friend to LI, Ms. Laura Ashton, new state-of-the-art flooring has been installed and it is absolutely stunning. Thank you, Ms. Ashton, for making this facility improvement a reality,” said Director of Development, Melissa Hall.

The graphic design for the floor was created by LI Marketing Specialist, Javin Leonard, with input from Laura Ashton, Melissa Hall, Head of School Twila Perry, and Director of Athletics and Activities, Eric Berry. The new floor is a product referred to as Bio-Channel Star and offers improved shock absorption and ball bounce for better player performance and safety.
