The BHS gym bleachers are installed and ready for commencement. The bleachers removed in March were nearly 30 years old and in need of repair. In the new arrangement the gyym has seats with backs in the middle section of the Jackson Street side. The scorers table and team seating will move to the Main Street side. A space will be between the scores table, team seats and the bleachers, enabling fans to walk without disrupting the game. The photo below shows the gym without bleachers.
