Board approves $45,000 pregame lighting show for Titan Arena; Legacy Pavilion plan tabled
Summary
The board authorized a pregame lighting/production system for Titan Arena paid from the athletics activity fund and heard a separate proposal for a Legacy Pavilion; the pavilion was tabled pending further renderings and details.
The board unanimously approved a $45,000 purchase for a pregame lighting and production system for Titan Arena (referred to in the presentation as Luxeo/Lucido/Loxido in the vendor materials). Athletic staff said the purchase will come from the gate/activity fund and that a three-year fundraising commitment (15 business sponsors at $1,000 per year) is planned to replenish funds.
Athletic director Coach Hick described the system as a way to create a “high college experience” and an educational opportunity for students in media, journalism and Titan TV to design pregame productions. He said additional shows beyond the initial package would cost roughly $2,000 per show and that installation could be completed in time for the current season if logistics align.
The board also reviewed a $25,000 proposal to fund a Legacy Pavilion (covered- pavilion seating and furniture near the football stadium) and discussed design, materials and color choices. Trustees asked for additional renderings and color samples; the pavilion proposal was tabled for further review and will return to the board later.
Votes and financing: the Luxeo pregame system was approved unanimously with the initial money to come from the activity/gate fund; the Legacy Pavilion was discussed and tabled pending more information.
