From The Principal I By Stanley Kotzen Principal, Lower Cape May Regional High School

It was night football that brought well over 3.000 people to our campus last week, and the results of our first effort to provide this event to the community were most gratifying. The outcome of the game was clearly lit on the scoreboard: Middle 7. Lower 6. The home team and our fans were clearly disappointed, but there really was enough glory for both teams and communities. The event was a real showcase for the excitement of a neighborhood rivalry and an example of the best in interscholastic competition - a well played, hard fought football game with packed stands and enthusiastic crowd response - and because of school and community cooperation - a game that was "incident free". THERE WAS genuine anxiety about night football last year when the subject was broached, but Board of Education President Paul I.undholm agreed to examine our prospects. Along with Ed Sherretta. a parent and active LCMR alumnus, we travelled to Cherry Hill in early October 1984 to see just how safe artificial

lighting could be for our purpose. What we discovered was the fact that technology had made portable lighting considerably safer for players and fans in the past several years. Light towers could be moved back from the field and visibility was reasonably good. IN APRIL OCR board agreed to "give it a try" and all we had to do was find an opponent who would agree with our plans. Athletic director Bill Garrison contracted Middle Township, as one of our traditional rivals, and Principal John McVey and Athletic Director Phil Exley got the approval of their board of education to go ahead with our plans to have our first night game ever at LCMR. From that point on it was essential that we provide the safety and security that this event would require because almost immediately following announcement of our planned night game, community interest was dramatically piqued. WITH THE cooperation of the Lower Township and Middle Township police and the Cape May County Sheriff's department we had a good start. Athletic Business Manager Bill Carr recruited tne help necessary to assist those in the crowd and in the dark to find parking and restroom facilities. Our buildings and grounds supervisor. Donna Rippel. made sure that facilities in the buildings were open and that auxiliary lighting was provided. All Sports Lighting of Neptune, was contracted to provide 34 light standards and we were all seL If only the weather would cooperate. PRIOR TO the game there was a 4:30 p.m. covered dish dinner for the team, the cheerleaders, and the coaches with their families. The sight of all those people happily excited about the evening's activity was worth the entire project. But there was more. As the night descended the crowd gathered to the « hawking cries of the Boosters and the appearance of both bands. The teams took the field and there was genuine electricity in the air. Two hours after the opening whistle, it was over The game was a elear^ntense, classic exam^Hbf the best in high sffiool athletics. The artificial lighting was pretty good, but no comparison to the brillant harvest moon that put the final touches on an exciting Friday night.
