Things are looking much different at the Edmonson County High School football field as the bleachers and press box are currently undergoing demolition. As of Thursday, about half of the bleachers had been removed with all of the interior of the press box removed.

The construction project is part of the three million dollar, school district-wide renovation plan for the 2017-18 school year.

Just over half of the seating has been removed as of Oct. 19, 2017.

The project is scheduled to be completed in December of this year and will feature all new aluminum bleachers for the home side, along with a completely redesigned press box with a new modernized public address sound system. Members of the construction crew from Alliance, Inc., said that concrete pads were also going to join the blacktopped track which will eliminate walking through grass and dirt around the front of the bleachers.
