Off-site parking and shuttle buses to
Garland Shoemake Stadium will be offered to the East
Coweta-Newnan game from two sites on Friday, November 7.
Fans can park at Lee Middle School, on Willis Road, or at the
Hunter Athletic Complex, on Georgia Highway 16, Friday evening.
Shuttle buses to East Coweta’s Garland Shoemake Stadium will be
run regularly from Lee Middle and the Hunter Complex beginning
at 5:30 p.m.
Law enforcement officers will provide security at both parking
sites. Return shuttle service will be offered from the stadium
starting after half-time and continuing throughout the evening.
Tickets to the game are $7, and can be purchased at the parking
sites as well as at the gate, to reduce waiting.
Limited parking will be available on the East Coweta campus
Friday night, and overflow parking along Georgia Highway 154 and
McIntosh Trail will be limited.
East Coweta High School is offering the offsite parking at Lee
to improve traffic conditions and to make parking and departure
easier for fans. Both schools are urging fans to use the shuttle
sites for convenience.
Willis Road is approximately 1 mile north of East Coweta High
School’s campus on Georgia Highway 154. Turn east onto Willis
Road from the red light on Highway 154, and Lee Middle is
approximately ˝-mile on the left.
Coweta County’s Hunter Athletic Complex is located at 2970 East
Highway 16, approximately 2 miles east of Highway 16’s
intersection with U.S. Highway 29, or ˝-mile west of Highway
16’s intersection with Poplar Road.
The annual rivalry game between the East Coweta Indians and
Newnan Cougars is usually the best attended match-up during both
teams’ seasons. A special pre-game celebration will take place
on the field before Friday’s kick-off, when Atlanta Falcon Keith
Brooking – a former Indians player – is honored with a
retirement of his “35” Indians jersey.
