The dome is slated to return for its third season next fall. The Dome served the schools and community well during the cold weather, according to school officials. In fact, the Packer softball team, thanks to the weatherproof structure, was able to get more games in this season than any other team in the state, said activities director Lisa Quednow. The dome has been used for sporting events and practices, as well as provided an area for dozens of walkers. Superintendent of Schools Dave Krenz said he believed the structure, in its second year of use, proved to be a great success.
