Guest EagleFan01 Posted July 20, 2009 Report Posted July 20, 2009 Does anyone have any pics of the renovations that Newton made? They put new stands in on the home side from what I hear, the reserve seating is really nice they recline from what i hear. Even got new stands on visitor side, the stadium is gonna sit alot more people from what I hear. But if anyone took pics you should post them.

Please, please tell me they have a new pressbox or at least a better one on the visitors side. That one is just a firecracker stand with one 40 watt bulb in it.

ChampionEagles Posted July 20, 2009 Report Posted July 20, 2009 Yes Virginia, there is a new press box. The home stands are only skeletons as of today. They have not started attaching any seats. The reserved is supposed to be individual seating. They moved a portion of the old home stands over and attached them to the visitors side. Most definitely increased capacity on both sides. I don't think they have done anything to the visitors side press box.
Guest checkmate Posted July 20, 2009 Report Posted July 20, 2009 press box looks impressive....gl to the eagles this year
Guest EagleFan01 Posted July 21, 2009 Report Posted July 21, 2009 From what i understand there is gonna be a big improvement to the visitor's side pressbox also. The Home side press box is very nice does anyone have pics of it?
ChampionEagles Posted July 24, 2009 Report Posted July 24, 2009 Article in the local paper says reserved seating will be individual fold down plastic seating with an increase in their numbers from years past. The seating also extends to the field fence in front, no more leaning on fence in front of stands.
Guest EagleFan01 Posted July 24, 2009 Report Posted July 24, 2009 Here is a link to see two pics of the stadium rebuil its looking good. http://www.newtonnews.com/Sports.html
Guest hardcore Posted July 27, 2009 Report Posted July 27, 2009 I am a wildcat fan and have alot of respect for the newton eagle program. I feel it is about time that the fans and players to have something good come their way. I also feel that newton will beat dangerfield this year. I wish the eagles the best this season and hope ya win the state championship. GO EAGLES.
SETXsports Broadcaster Posted July 27, 2009 Report Posted July 27, 2009 all I remember about the press box is you had to prop up the windows with other pieces of board and you had to watch your step or you would fall thru. Oh and you had to love the light pole smack in the middle of the window
Guest EagleFan01 Posted July 28, 2009 Report Posted July 28, 2009 You must be talking about the pressbox on the visitor's side? The one on the home side wasn't that bad, but now its brand new and looks really nice. The stands look really good also.

Oh and you had to love the light pole smack in the middle of the window And we all know how many games have been won by the press box!
Guest EagleFan01 Posted August 9, 2009 Report Posted August 9, 2009 Well the stands are complete and they look very nice, here is the link to see them. http://www.newtonnews.com/
ChampionEagles Posted August 11, 2009 Report Posted August 11, 2009 The improvements to Singletary Stadium are quite nice and had been needed. Got my reserve seat tickets yesterday! Actually thought about stopping by and just sitting in them for a while. Come on first home game!
Guest EagleFan01 Posted August 11, 2009 Report Posted August 11, 2009 http://www.newtonnews.com/ They did a great job on this in my mind
LTrain Posted August 13, 2009 Report Posted August 13, 2009 Looks really good, much improved from when i played there many years ago, but none of that stopped them from putting a whoopin on us..lol
ChampionEagles Posted August 15, 2009 Report Posted August 15, 2009 Up until just a few years ago the field actually was close to 3' lower on one end than the other. Had been built that way by mistake. When they installed the track and shot grade, found out field was running down hill. I knew I always felt like I was running uphill most of the time!
