8/26/13 - A celebration before Brighton High School's first football game of the season will showcase the improvements made so far with the district's recently-approved bond money. Voters approved an $88 million bond issue last year to make facility improvements and technology upgrades within the district. So far more than $30 million of that money has been spent. One of the major projects undertaken this summer was the complete renovation of the Brighton High School athletic stadium. Superintendent Greg Gray says there will be a free celebration event beginning at 3pm this Thursday, August 29th, which is the school's first football game of the year. The free event will include live music and entertainment, circus performers, train rides, a technology tent to demonstrate new purchases made with the grant money, and games and contests for children. There will also be food vendors, a raffle, and prize drawings every 15 minutes. The football game against Novi begins at 7pm, and admission is $5. At halftime there will be a helicopter football drop, and following the game there will be a laser light show. (TD)
