Stanton County board approves $20,000 to Stanton County Recreation for baseball field lights
Summary
The board authorized a $20,000 payment to Stanton County Recreation to help purchase baseball field lights and to support additional recreation projects after the light purchase. The motion passed unanimously.
The Stanton County Unified School District #452 Board of Education voted Feb. 10 to provide $20,000 to the Stanton County Recreation group to assist with purchasing baseball field lights.
Superintendent Trenton Horn told the board that Deniese Smith of Stanton County Recreation had discussed a grant opportunity for a portion of the lights and asked whether the school district would contribute. After discussion about how frequently games require lights and the district’s willingness to help, Paige German moved that the district give $20,000 to Stanton County Recreation for purchase of lights and other projects after the lights are bought; Bobbie seconded. The motion carried 5‑0.
Why it matters: The payment is a direct partnership between the school district and a local recreation organization that may expand evening athletic opportunities in the community.
What’s next: The minutes do not include a timeline or conditions tied to the payment; the board approved the contribution and adjourned at 8:31 p.m.
