The Troup County Board of Commissioners recently announced the completion of a lighting upgrade project at Callaway Stadium. The project involved removing the original lighting system and installing a new LED stadium and field lighting system, which will provide a brighter and more evenly distributed light on the playing surface. This upgrade was funded by SPLOST 6 and includes new foundations, poles, bracket mounting arms, LED lights, light racks, and new electrical and control systems.
The new LED lighting system at Callaway Stadium is a major improvement for the community, as it is the first lighting upgrade since 1958. The new lights are brighter and more efficient than the old ones, and they have improved visibility on the field and around the stadium with only 4 poles instead of 8. Additionally, the LED lights are expected to help reduce electricity costs during events at the stadium.
One exciting feature of the new LED lights is the ability to blink and change colors, adding a new level of entertainment to the stadium. This will create an immersive experience for fans attending events at Callaway Stadium. Overall, the completion of this lighting upgrade project represents a significant improvement for Troup County residents who use Callaway Stadium for sports events or concerts.
