KTTC featured an article on recent $5.5 million gift commitment to Saint Mary’s. The gift was made by David Thies B’59 and his wife Marlys to largely support Cardinal athletics and scholarships.
From the Story:
“The gift includes a $2.5 million cash contribution and a $3 million estate gift. The largest portion of the gift ($2.625 million) is designated for a complete remodel of the Winona Campus gymnasium, which will now be called the David R. Thies B’59 Arena. The gift is considered the largest gift in the university’s athletic history.”
