From Monday through Thursday, East Hamilton athletic director Brad Jackson managed 20 total minutes for lunch.
“It has been busier than the Volkswagen plant around here,” he said as the school, numerous county employees and many volunteers went through last-minute preparations for the school hosting its first football game tonight.
“The bleachers are finished. Thank goodness we have had good weather,” Jackson said Wednesday between meetings on a hectic day of a hectic week. “I don’t think I’ll relax at all until around midnight Friday.”
His list of last-minute details seemed to grow rather than shrink before the game tonight against Central.
The school will have temporary concession stands plus two Coca-Cola wagons, but Jackson said they would have full service with regard to sandwiches, candy and other concession items. Portable bathrooms also will be in place.
