2020 Homecoming Pregame Ceremony
Cardinal Stadium
The event will be held Friday, Oct 16th with the on-field ceremony starting at 6:30PM.
Gates will open at 5:30
Guests to the event and the game will be expected to strictly adhere to social distancing and mask wearing guidelines within the stadium area.
Within the bleachers we will require that guests sit in every other row, and maintain at least 6’ of distance between family groupings. There will be visual cues to help with this.
Guests are not allowed on the field at any time before the ceremony, during the ceremony, after the ceremony, during the game, or after the game.
Tickets will not be pre-sold and will be available for purchase at both ticket pavilions when the gates open at 5:30. There will be limited seating capacity so we would encourage you to use our livestream option if you don’t have immediate family in the ceremony or game.
All lifetime, AAA, and season passes will be accepted.
We will count everyone coming into the stadium and everyone exiting the stadium and will maintain below the level of capacity required by the Arkansas Department of Health. If we reach capacity we will hold spectators outside the gates and let them as room allows as people exit after the ceremony.
Sections in the bleachers will be marked off for band, students, and corporate reserved seating. Anywhere else within the bleachers will be first come, first serve.
There will be no reserved parking offered.
In the event of inclement weather, the ceremony will be moved to Cardinal Arena. At this point, only immediate family members and High School Students will be allowed in due to social distancing requirements. All start times will remain the same.
The ceremony will be available through livestream through the District’s Farmcardslive youtube channel for those unable to attend.
There will be no pep rally, homecoming dance, or dance on the field following the game due to Arkansas Department of Health Directives.
If in the event that the game is cancelled due to COVID-19 reasons, the ceremony will still take place that night at 6:30 for FAMILIES ONLY with no admission fee.
If a maid is placed under quarantine or has tested positive for COVID-19 during the time frame of the ceremony they will not be able to participate under state law. No replacement maids will be named in this event.
