Bethlehem, PA – The Bethlehem Area School District (BASD), in cooperation with local police departments, will be taking proactive safety and security measures at all Liberty High School and Freedom High School football games in the BASD Stadium.

Gates will open at 6:00 PM. School officials and police officers will be at each gate before and during the game. Any purses/bags brought into the stadium must be clear and will be checked. Backpacks and tote bags will not be permitted in the stadium. No outside food or beverages will be allowed in the stadium. Stadium safety announcements will be made via the stadium public address system before and during the game. Spectators may not leave and re-enter the stadium except to comply with security requirements. Loitering will not be permitted.

There will be no ticket purchases or admittance to the stadium after halftime.

We appreciate that these proactive, modern security measures may not always be convenient for spectators, but they are absolutely necessary to support the safety of our students, families, and community. We all play a critical role in stadium safety, and we thank you in advance for your cooperation.
