Elevating the Game

Standing over 80 feet tall, The Walt Snelling Press Box is the focal point of the upgraded stadium. The facility includes seating for 6,000 fans, a new concessions area, state-of-the-art suites, and a modernized press box—transforming the stadium into a premier venue that will serve the community for generations to come.

From the start of the project, the project team worked closely with the Owner and subcontractor partners to keep the accelerated schedule on track. Regular meetings kept the Owner and other stakeholders informed of the project process and schedule milestones. Through the team’s diligence and expertise, we completed the project within seven months, allowing the Red Elephants to play their first home game of the 2024-2025 football season in the newly renovated stadium.
