The new Doug Collins and John Malkovich Event Center on the Benton No. 47 elementary campus is now complete, and the board of education is selling premium seats at the new facility to Jr. Ranger fans.
The cost of each seat is $150 and reserves the seat for all district-sponsored events held at the Event Center for the 2017-18 school year. These include volleyball and basketball games, graduation ceremonies, academic award events, and all fine arts programs sponsored by the district.
Each chair purchased will be fitted with a nameplate displayed on the top left corner of the chair. Applicants can apply for up to two seats and, on a limited basis, three seats.
Applications must be accompanied by payment and will be accepted annually from May 1 to June 1.
Information and application forms are available on the school website at benton47.org. Questions can be directed to the superintendent's office at 618-439-3136.
