I am excited to get started working with the cadets and the administration."

Long story short, the basketball court lines being drawn on the Main Area are a temporary thing for summer camp -- apparently they have a very full summer camp session and need more areas to use for camp activities. Brian indicates that the Main Area will return to its normal black appearance once summer camp ends.
