Due to the rainfall Friday, plans for the Austin High School Packer Football Game have changed slightly.

School officials announced there will be no parking or ticket sales at the northwest gate near the water tower, as it will be closed.

All ticket sales will move into the maintenance garage on the northeast corner of stadium. Ticket sales will begin at 5:30 p.m. All fans will enter the stadium through the smaller gate between the maintenance shed and stadium. Handicapped parking will be at the northeast gate and will be available with sticker only.

A ceremony planned for the new turf at the Wescott Athletic complex will be held as scheduled.
