Text description provided by the architects. The Green Forest Athletic Complex reshapes the vision of thissmall public school district’s athletic program with sleek color and form. Located to the south of the previously designed modern middle school, the new stands and press box continue the proportions and aestheticwhich have become very identifiable sources of community pride within the Green Forest Public Schools Campus. By establishing a clear processional entry, the pulse of the athletic program is captured in a manner complimentaryto the fervor that sporting events demand in small southern public school realms.
