LET THE TROJAN WALK JOURNEY BEGIN!
We knew from the very beginning that it was going to take just the right person to install these incredible pieces of our Trojan Family history.
And when we say “just the right person,” we mean someone who is precise, knowledgeable, patient, hardworking…and maybe just a little bit crazy enough to take on a project like this!
Enter Chad Lorenz, along with his all-star assistants—his wife, Laura, and father-in-law, Brad Treaster!
If you know Chad, you know there truly could not be a better person for this job. These bricks came straight from Mill Street, and saying they have a little “wear and tear” is putting it mildly! Each one has its own personality, which makes installing them beautifully an incredibly tedious and labor-intensive process.
But this crew has taken on the monumental task of installing 1,000 individual pieces of Trojan history—and they’re doing it with incredible attention to detail, a whole lot of Trojan pride, and somehow still plenty of smiles!
And speaking of those 1,000 bricks…
208 SOLD to be engraved, in our very first year!
Out of nearly 1,000 available spaces, we think that is a FANTASTIC start—and we’re just getting going!
There have been so many hands involved in bringing the Trojan Walk to life.
Senger Construction created an amazing framework and foundation for the project.
Bell Memorial engraved each and every one of these special pieces—and trust us, there is MUCH more coming about their incredible work!
And now Chad, Laura and Brad are putting all those pieces together in a way that is already looking absolutely flawless.
And perhaps the best part of all is that Chad gets to install his own family’s brick, purchased in honor of their daughter, Autumn—the 2026 3A javelin champion! What a special way to celebrate her incredible accomplishment and add another meaningful piece of Trojan history to the walk.
What makes this project so special is that these aren’t simply bricks.
They are families.
They are classes.
They are teachers, coaches, businesses and organizations.
They are memories.
They are Trojan history.
And this is only the beginning!
We’ll be opening the SECOND ROUND of Trojan Walk brick purchases in the next couple of weeks, giving even more members of our Trojan Family the opportunity to permanently add their name to this special place.
Stay tuned for installation updates AND details on how you can become part of the next chapter of the Trojan Walk!
Once a Trojan. Always a Trojan. And now—a little piece of Trojan history forever.
