205 to replace Thiel Gym floor following storm damage

District 205 officials say the floor of Thiel Gym at Galesburg High School will have to be completely replaced, due to storm damage caused during July 10th’s straight-line winds that blew through Galesburg.

Around 40 percent of the floor has warped from water damage. High winds blew a protective covering off of the roof that is being replaced as a part of summer construction. A news release says the district is working with insurance carriers to quickly resolve the issue. 

All fall sports and activities will be relocated to other district facilities.

The WGIL News Team will have more information this afternoon.
