Bushnell Center
Welcome to the David Bushnell Center for Athletics and Community at the high school in West Portal. Thanks to the generosity and vision of our incredible community, we launched the largest capital campaign in school history, raising over $8 million to build this sustainable showcase facility. The Bushnell Center is now home to school athletic events, performances, and gatherings. We also welcome rental inquiries from the community and value-aligned organizations.
