    A black curtain dropped Saturday night, unveiling a sign with illuminated words.
    Everybody at the dedication of the Alachua County Sports and Events Center knew the name. Chances are you might be wondering why it’s shining on a big red wall.

    You might also be wondering about the latest structure that's popped up at Celebration Pointe. Nestled next to Bass Pro Shop, just down from Spurrier’s Gridiron Grille, is a new sports complex unlike anything in Florida.

    The prime attraction is a 220-meter track, the only indoor one in the state. It was built in Italy by MONDO, the company that produces running surfaces at most Olympic stadiums.
