Atwood Stadium
is an
11,000-seat
stadium located in
Flint, Michigan. It opened
on
June 8,
1929 and has hosted high
school
football,
minor-league
baseball, and
concerts over the years.
Atwood still hosts high school
football games today.
Originally
Atwood Stadium had a natural
grass field, but in
1969 began using artificial
turf. Atwood's turf was ruled
unsafe, leading to the stadium's
closure in
1992. The stadium reopened
in
1995 after $2 million in
improvements, including a new
artificial turf field.
Currently
the stadium in undergoing key
renovations, but the stadium is
still in use for sporting
events, mainly football. It is
currently home to Flint middle
school football as well as
Central, Northern, and
Southwestern High School
football, and Flint Fury
semi-pro football.
In 2006, most of Atwood's seating
received renovations, with new
padded vinyl seats installed.
