Would you like a piece of Minutemen memorabilia? Please take a look at the pictures below. As a a part of our locker room renovations, we salvaged the benches from the boys' and girls' locker rooms. We grabbed the benches that our district can reuse in the future leaving the following to be deemed "surplus property." Each bench is for sale for $20, no matter the size. Here is the following sizes that we have available at first come, first serve:
UPDATE: We have one 10 foot long bench with beige legs remaining.
