💰 Lakeland High School Wins $25K, Now Competing for $1 Million T-Mobile Stadium Makeover
Lakeland High School has been named one of just 25 finalist schools nationwide in T-Mobile’s Friday Night 5G Lights program — a competition celebrating the way high school football brings entire communities together.
👉 Community voting is open now through October 24 at:
https://www.t-mobile.com/brand/friday-night-5g-lights/g
You can vote once per day, and every vote helps bring the Hawks closer to winning the $1 million grand prize, with winners to be announced October 30.
The Hawks have already earned a $25,000 prize to consider much-needed projects at Corbit Field, including stadium repairs, concession stand updates, improved accessibility, and replacing outdated field goal posts.
Why It Matters
Lakeland’s stadium hasn’t seen major improvements in over 35 years. Meanwhile, the student body has doubled and the surrounding community has tripled in size. This investment would not only benefit football athletes, but also:
🎶 Band members marching under the lights
🏋️ PE classes using the weight room
🏈 Youth sports programs building their foundation
🤝 Community events that unite neighbors on Friday nights
“This upgrade would breathe new life into a space that brings us all together — a space where students, families, and neighbors gather to cheer, connect, and celebrate,” said Lakeland Athletic Director Matt Neff.
The Celebration
Lakeland will be recognized during a special Friday night celebration on October 3 at Corbit Field, hosted by T-Mobile, featuring games, giveaways, and free concessions.
