(KNZA)--New lights will be installed at the Sabetha High School football stadium.
Superintendent Todd Evans says the USD 113 Board of Education Monday evening approved a contract with Musco Sports Lighting for the installation of the new lights at a cost of $149,000.
Evans said the current poles have become a safety issue. They were installed in the late 1960's and are in bad shape.
The current wood poles will be replaced with four galvanized steel poles with ten lights each, for a total of 40 lights.
Evans said the new lights should be installed before track season.
