    COOP! I am a teacher and coach at Adair High School (Adair,OK).
    We are a very small school in Eastern Oklahoma and have a very low budget. Most years we are a school that does 100% free lunches for all students because we qualify for it since our district is just very low income area.
    Although we are low income our school is awesome and gets great support from the community, ESPECIALLY in sports. We are very competitive and have won several state championships, but our weight room is one thing that is very out of date and really needs new equipment. It would be so cool to have someone like you remodel our gym and give our athletes a place to be proud of as they put in their hard work year in and year out!

    I would love to see the Northeast Nodaway gym in Ravenwood, MO remodeled. The added on to their existing building a few years ago and part of it is used for their weight room. It's a decent weight room but the equipment is basic. They have 3 rigs but they have the junky circular deals instead of J cups and they have to be unscrewed to be adjusted. Their plates and barbells are not the best quality either. They do have a pretty good range of dumbbells, however they are very old. The also have some REALLY old machines (leg press, leg curl, leg extension, and lat pulldown). Northeast Nodaway is a small school and I don't foresee them being able to update their weight room anytime soon.
