JACKSON, NJ — A collaborative effort between multiple public and private entities has begun to improve the concession stand, field house, and locker room at Jackson Memorial High School’s football field has begun.  

The  Jackson Board of Education, Jackson Township Council President Jennifer L. Kuhn and Councilman Mordechai Burnstein, Jackson Police Department, Jackson fire companies, Jackson Education Foundation, Department of Public Works, and private sponsors and volunteers met on Friday to kick off the initiative.

The group is seeking community volunteers and corporate sponsors to help upgrade the aging facility inside and out.  Now, they are seeking financial donations from local businesses, alumni, and residents to complete the renovations.  

Contributions will enhance facility quality and improve experiences for athletes, fans, and community members alike. 

There will be a kick-off celebration on Sunday, May 19th at Jackson  Memorial High School from 10:30 am to 1 pm.

Sponsorship opportunities range from Bronze ($750) to Gold  ($3,000), each offering escalating benefits, including signage, media mentions, and even exclusive naming rights for top-tier donors.

Additional perks for sponsors include social media recognition, event banners, and a special plaque. 

The ultimate goal is to not only refurbish these spaces but also to strengthen community pride and support student development and to provide the students with a much needed improvement to the facility.
