Box seats still available for varsity football season
The west side of Bronco Stadium is nearing completion and Mustang football fans still have an opportunity to secure box seats for the four varsity home games scheduled for the 2010 season. The center section of the home side includes 598 chair-back seats. Fans can purchase tickets from 8:30 a.m. to 3:30 p.m., at the Mustang Health and Wellness Center on the south side of the Mustang High School campus. Call 376-7366 for more information.
Chuck Bailey, athletic director, said the season tickets are sold in pairs for $120 for the 2010 season. Individual buyers can purchase as many as six pairs of tickets. Patrons can also purchase a pair of “donor” seats for $500, a portion of which is a tax-deductible donation to Mustang’s athletic program. Every pair of seats sold will come with a pass for preferred parking near the entrance of the stadium. Seating for the first year is assigned. Donor seats will be along the 50-yard line.
“For just $9 over the cost of a general admission adult ticket, season ticket holders will have guaranteed preferred parking and the best seats in the stadium,” Bailey said. “The season tickets will give those die-hard Mustang fans the ability to have fantastic seats guaranteed, without having to arrive at the stadium three hours early.”
The improved seating is being made possible by the 2009 bond issue. The west side will become the home side, and Mustang patrons will no longer be looking into the sun. Seating capacity will be increased to 4,600 on the new home side and will include 23 rows of chair-back seating in the center of the stadium.

Student pick-up and drop off changes set
for 2010-2011 school year
Parents who drive their children to and from school and Mustang bus riders will see some changes to the traffic patterns around Mustang High School, Mustang Middle School and Mustang Mid-High for the 2010-2011 school year. Construction on the Mustang High School campus has necessitated a change in bus routes, which in turn, has created a change for car traffic as well.
Bonnie Lightfoot, superintendent of Mustang Schools, said the school has been working on the changes with Timberlake Construction, the construction management firm overseeing the MHS construction, and also the Mustang Police Department.
“This is such an exciting time for the Mustang Public School District,” Lightfoot said. “We appreciate everyone’s patience, particularly during the first few days of school while we all get used to the new procedures and traffic patterns.”
Changes are also in store for students at Mustang High School who park in the student lot. Students who drive to MHS and parents of students at MHS, MMS and MMH are asked to review the drop off and pick up routes. The changes are listed by school below.
