Bond 2025 Construction Update: Turf Installation Begins

By December 11, 2025No Comments

Construction at Flour Bluff’s baseball and softball fields is moving into an exciting new phase as Hellas Construction begins turf installation at the baseball field, with work at the softball field set to follow. This step comes after the completion of site evaluation, planning, demolition, precise grading, the removal of the softball dugouts, and the installation of the stone base. The baseball dugouts will also be removed and replaced, and both the baseball and softball dugouts will be rebuilt and modernized as part of the project.

Once complete, the new turf fields will provide reliable, year-round playing surfaces while using far less water than natural grass. This change will save thousands of gallons annually and reduce long-term costs by eliminating the need for re-sodding, chemical treatments, and heavy equipment, helping the district manage resources responsibly for years to come. The project is slated for completion in January, just in time for the 2026 Flour Bluff Hornets baseball and softball season.

Thanks to the ongoing support of the Flour Bluff, Padre Island, Naval Air Station, and Corpus Christi Army Depot communities, Flour Bluff ISD remains committed to transparency and responsible stewardship throughout all Bond 2025 projects. These projects are already making a lasting impact on students, programs, and facilities across the district.
