Edmonton Eskimo Alumni Association donating new scoreboards to local parks

(Edmonton) The Edmonton Eskimo Alumni Association is proud to announce that they are donating new outdoor scoreboards to three of The City of Edmonton’s sports parks. The three sights chosen to receive new scoreboards are Coronation Park, Johnny Bright Park and Clarke Park, as their scoreboards were in greatest need of updating. The Dactronics boards purchased were supplied and just recently installed by Centaur Products of Calgary. These state-of-the-art boards all feature LED display, as well as wireless controls for the greatest in both visibility and reliability. The boards are now in place and operational just in time for the Edmonton Minor Football League playoffs, including this Sunday’s PFC Final at Clarke Park.

The Alumni Association raised the $75,000.00 for this legacy project through its various fundraising events held each year. The Association’s number one priority was to provide proper scorekeeping equipment for the many minor football teams that use the parks each year. However, it’s not just football teams that will enjoy the new boards. Other sports leagues and athletes will benefit, as these scoreboards can be used during soccer and track and field events as well.

Supporting and promoting minor football in Edmonton and area is one of the Edmonton Eskimo Alumni Association’s main priorities.

The Edmonton Eskimo Alumni Association would like to thank The City of Edmonton, Football Alberta and the many people who have supported the Alumni Association’s fundraising efforts.
