ECHS Expecting Big Crowd For EC/L'Burg Football Game; Face Coverings Required

Even at 50 percent capacity, a large crowd is expected which will make it challenging to "achieve and maintain" proper social distancing.

(St. Leon, Ind.) - With a big crowd expected for the East Central/ Lawrenceburg football game this Friday, additional steps are being taken to ensure the health and safety of spectators. 

East Central High School principal Tom Black says the school is expecting a 50 percent capacity crowd or approximately 2,250 fans at Trojan Field. Black added that "achieving and maintaining" social distancing will be challenging, therefore spectators will be required to wear face coverings in accordance with the Governor’s mandate. 

The Governor’s mandate will be posted at all entrances. Facemasks will be required upon entrance and will be made available to spectators if necessary. 

Also, due to social distancing guidelines, Lawrenceburg fans are asked to enter at the visitor ticket entrance near the Northwest corner of the field off of Trojan Rd. 

East Central fans will need to enter at the South ticket entrance on the home side of the stadium. Separate restroom and concession areas for home and visitor fans will also be in place.
