Deacon Tower Updates

I received an email from a reader yesterday asking to be updated, hopefully with photos, about the progress being made on Deacon Tower. The official Wake Forest Football Project site hasn't been updated in a long time, and although some of you have probably found other ways to follow the progress, I know some of you have not.

This gallery, from photographer Bob Hebert (he gets credit for the picture to the right), is a few of weeks old and shows the incredible progress that has been made on the tower even in just the last few months. Those of you who are familiar with the Deacon Sports message boards have also probably been following this thread which contains even more recent photo updates if you're willing to sift through the most recent pages.

All indications are that Deacon Tower will be fully ready for the home opener against Ole Miss on September 6. In fact, tours of the Tower are expected to be available at the final scrimmage on the August 19.

No doubt about it, Deacon Tower is a thing of beauty and the Wake Forest community can be very proud of it.
