  be able to improve the sound systems, at its athletic facilities thanks

  in part to a 5,000 donation it received through the T-Mobile Friday
• 0:31
  Night 5G Lights program. At the September 14th, Oswego School Board meeting,
• 0:37
  board members voted unanimously to accept the donation. These funds will be
• 0:42
  used to make improvements to several athletic facility sound systems. Dan Arnson,
• 0:47
  the district's executive director of athletics, said in a memo to DIST
• 0:51
  308 School Superintendent Andalib Kelgati. Our baseball sound system has been in
• 0:56
  place for many years and recently lost a speaker due to age
• 1:00
  and continued use. Updating this system will improve the experience for our
• 1:05
  baseball, student athletes, coaches, families, and spectators. Arnsson said part of The
• 1:11
  donation will also be used to enhance the sound systems and overall
• 1:15
  functionality of the school's weight and wrestling rooms. Both facilities are utilized
• 1:21
  by male and female student athletes across multiple athletic programs and have
• 1:26
  gone several years without significant investment in these areas, he said. These
• 1:31
  improvements will provide our student athletes with more modern and functional facilities
• 1:35
  that support training, communication, and a positive overall athletic experience. The donation
• 1:42
  will directly benefit multiple athletic programs while helping address several long-standing facility
• 1:48
  needs. He said Oswego High School Athletics has set aside funds to
• 1:53
  address the improvements and the five thousand dollation will cover a significant
• 1:58
  portion of the associated costs.
