YAKIMA, Wash.–Gesa Credit Union here said it will sponsor a new scoreboard at Eisenhower High School, home to Zaepfel Stadium and Don Holder Track.
The Yakima School District said the student and fan experience will improve the facility as a result of the sponsorship, with Gesa Credit Union funding nearly the entire cost to purchase and install a new Daktronics scoreboard.
"The scoreboard will add a brand new dimension to any activity at the stadium. It will be an incredible feature for spectators and athletes. As an example, for track, athletes and spectators will see the results as the finish line is crossed. In addition, this scoreboard is a key element to bringing larger-scale engagements to Yakima," said Phil English, Eisenhower Track and Cross Country Head Coach, in a statement.
The school District said the Gesa logo will have a prominent fixed location on the board, and added that opportunities for businesses in the community to purchase advertisements on the video portion of the new scoreboard will begin fall of 2019.
