(Gary, IND) – In an effort to further adhere to COVID-19 safety guidelines, sporting events hosted by the Gary Community School Corporation are now completely digital. Electronic forms of payment are now accepted to avoid handling of paper tickets or currency.   

“Not only are we conducting ourselves in a safer manner, but we can better predict and control the number of attendees to through e-ticketing,” said Robert Lee, Athletic Director for the Gary Schools.  
Lee also noted that many other school districts are opting to adapt the same protocol. Electronic payment also assists with record keeping and more accurate accounting of funds received. 
“For those who are uncertain about using the technology, we have staff on-hand to assist,” said Lee. “We recognize that everyone has not converted to the practice of online payments.”
