As Mediacom Stadium – the new stadium being developed by Des Moines Public Schools and Drake University – rises along Forest Avenue, new sponsors are showing their support for the construction and operations of the facility.
In an update by Drake's athletic director Brian Hardin at the June 6 meeting of the Des Moines School Board, he shared that three areas of the stadium will recognize well-known companies for their support:
- The Casey's Concourse and Plaza
- The SCHEELS Video Board
- The Fareway Hillside
"We are committed to providing our students and spectators with a first-rate facility, one that we believe will be the best of its kind in Iowa," said Teree Caldwell-Johnson, chair of the Des Moines School Board.
