High Point football club asks board to allocate $5,000 sweepstakes winnings toward field upgrades
Summary
A virtual comment from Megan Vorniak, president of the High Point Football Club, asked how $5,000 in sweepstakes winnings would be used; the meeting noted the amount and said likely uses under consideration include new scoreboards or an upgraded outdoor public-address system.
Megan Vorniak, identified in a virtual submission as president of the High Point Football Club, asked the board where T‑Mobile sweepstakes winnings would be applied and urged the funds be used to improve the football field for teams and activities.
The meeting records show the total winnings are $5,000. Officials said stakeholders are discussing options and that likely improvements include replacing scoreboards or upgrading the outdoor public-address system used at games and graduation. No formal appropriation or vote on use of the funds was recorded at the meeting.
Why it matters: Athletic-field infrastructure (scoreboards, PA systems) is used by multiple teams and community events; a one-time $5,000 contribution can fund equipment upgrades but may not cover larger long-term facility projects.
What happens next: The board said it is coordinating with stakeholders to determine final allocation; no final decision was made at the Feb. 25 meeting.
