BH96 Posted November 28, 2006 Report Posted November 28, 2006 Check out this stadium from CFISD. It will put most college stadiums to shame. Hey I wonder what their taxes are. www.drumcorpstexas.org/BerryStadium-3/index.html
Lions Den Posted November 29, 2006 Report Posted November 29, 2006 Taxes are not to bad out there. I went to school there and my parents still live there. That is a nice stadium to hold all 8 high schools in the district.
bulldog16 Posted November 29, 2006 Report Posted November 29, 2006 This is the 2nd stadium in CFISD. Pridgeon was the first and while it does not have the complex of Berry, it is still a nice stadium. A lot of the Houston area school districts are having to build additional stadiums because of the growth. Cy Fair and Fort Bend each have 2 stadiums and look for Katy to build an additional stadium within the next few years.
vp93 Posted November 29, 2006 Report Posted November 29, 2006 Yeah, think once you get into district the possibility of only playing 1 true away game. Of the 8 teams in the district 7 play use both Pridgeon and the Barry Center as their home field.
PNG Proud Posted November 30, 2006 Report Posted November 30, 2006 It's truly sad that NONE of the area's school districts can manage money well enought to build a similar stadium. I say that, but a few schools, including PNGISD, get screwed monthly by Texas and the Robin Hood bill, so they HAVE no extra money. But BISD is surely large enough to support a stadium like that. I guess the school boards just don't put enough enfesis (SP?) on football, even though it's really the only sport that draws a big crowd. It's painfully obvious that other schools, i.e. CFISD, think much differently
Guest TravelingBandsman Posted November 30, 2006 Report Posted November 30, 2006 God, that stadium is amazing. I wish Dayton would stop putting money into they one we have and save money for a big one out somewhere open. When these new businesses start building up around here and get tax money to our school district, I hope they save most of it for big projects instead of just throwing it at every little problem.
