Could your school/community ever enter into a joint venture with a neighboring school/community to build and use a shared football stadium? Assuming your school was close enough to a neighboring community that distance alone would not make it impractical. Are there any such arrangements across the state where separate districts share facilities?

Those schools are in the same ISD though... I think he meant different ISDs.... say for example.. Brownwood and Early or Abilene Wylie, Cooper, and Abilene High

Can you imagine Snyder and Sweetwater sharing something? That would be murder if we had to do that!!!

Know of some districts that have shared facilities due to extinuating circumstances. There are no rules against it that I culd imagine, but I woundn't suspect two districts would want to share ownership of a facility. I could see two disticts using the same facility just one would own it and the other would lease it for obvious reasons.

Ditto for Bridgeport and Decatur---the Israelis and the Palestinians would stand a better chace of sharing a stadium...

When I was in school, Callisburg used to borrow our track. They had the hottest chicks and we loved when they would come over to practice. We had a nickname for them but I cant say it on here. :D

Leander is in the process of rebuilding Bible Stadium and Georgetown just built a new stadium a year or two ago. I can't imagine us "sharing" with either of them. Heck, there's already a few HS's using Bible.

Sinton, Taft and Odem could. Put it on 631 and it would be perfect distance for all teams.
