The Vogel Family Donation of Land

August 2023

FAQs:

What will you do with the donated land? What’s its purpose?

• The land has been donated by the Vogel family in memory of their late son. This generous gift contains 30 acres of land and they have requested that it be used as the site of a new soccer facility to serve our club and Central Arkansas.

Where is the land?

• The property is centrally located in Little Rock, providing easy accessibility

When will the land be developed and when will the facility be complete?

• At this time, we don’t have specifics on a new facility. The donation of the land is the first step as           we begin to dream and design a future for Arkansas soccer.
• Once we have designs and plans in place, we will be able to give everyone an expectation of timelines.

What does that change for players and families during this season?

• We know excitement is building for the future of soccer in our community and the new season, and we view this as fuel on that fire. Nothing changes for our teams and their families right now, but expect more information in the coming months.

What’s next in the process to build the new facility?

• We need your help! We are going to be kicking off a campaign to raise the funds needed for a new facility. We’re beginning to work with architects and engineers to understand what the facility could be, and the next step is to start raising funds to support its construction.

Why are we doing this at all?

• Our goal has always been and will continue to be the enhancement of the soccer experience for players in Arkansas. Part of that means we will bring even more opportunities to our players through our team’s professionalism, expert training, and commitment to excellence for our players. A new facility will be a huge tool in our abilities to further this mission and serve our community.
