College of Saint Benedict Announces Large Gift

The College of Saint Benedict announced a large gift this week that will be used to complete construction of new athletic fields.  The Corborn Family Foundation committed $500,000 for the College Avenue Athletic Fields that will include two soccer/lacrosse fields, two softball fields, three intramural/multi-use fields, and an athletic center featuring locker rooms and a training room, with restrooms and concessions for spectators.

CSB is located in St. Joseph, MN and enrolls just over 1,900 students.  The institution was founded by the Sisters of the Order of St. Benedict in 1887 and was initially known as St. Benedict's Academy.  It became St. Benedict's College and Academy in 1913 and the College of St. Benedict after 1927.
