Lumbee Tribe holds ribbon cutting for sports courts

By Staff Report, posted 1 year ago

On Thursday, Dec. 12,  the Lumbee Tribe of N.C. held a ribbon cutting to officially open the newly constructed Sport Courts at the Lumbee Tribe Cultural Center. The area features a full double,  basketball court and a collegiate volleyball court. The concrete basketball court is 90 x111 feet with an acrylic surface and a 10 feet high perimeter fence. There are plans to also install a future spectator pad. Tribal chairman Lowery congratulated the construction team for going the extra mile to research the project and ensure the materials would last and be enjoyed for generations to come. The project was funded by the North Carolina General assembly.

Tribal Chairman Lowery, Tribal Council members and staff are joined by Robeson County Commissioners Chair Pauline Campbell and John Cummings and NC Representative Jarrod Lowery for the ribbon cutting of newly constructed Sports Courts at the Lumbee Tribe Cultural Center.
