New Leopard Stadium Procedures

We appreciate your patience with the construction on all of our campuses over the last year. We face another challenge this Friday night as we open the newly renovated Leopard Stadium for the first home game against the Robinson Rockets. 

We ask if you plan to attend, that you note the following:

• The new stadium has plenty of seats for students, so they will be required to sit in the stands. Younger students must be seated with a parent or other adult.
• The seating with red chair backs is reserved for season ticket-holders. General admission seating is in Sections A and E.
• Items such as footballs and Frisbees will not be allowed.
• Of course, no alcohol, tobacco or firearms are allowed in the stadium.
• We ask that you please stay off the new grass at this time.

Kickoff is 7:30 Friday evening. Parking will be a challenge, so we encourage you to arrive early for the game if possible. We are planning some tailgating opportunities in the near future, so be on the lookout for more information coming soon.

Thank you for being a part of Lorena ISD!

Sandra Talbert

Lorena ISD Superintendent
