GHSA PERMANENT FOOTBALL HELMET DISPLAY UNVIELED

Posted December 11, 2008

ATLANTA, GA — The Georgia Dome and Atlanta Falcons proudly announce the unveiling of a Georgia High School Association football helmet display. Located at lower Gate C of the Dome, this expansive display features helmets gathered from GHSA-affiliated high school football teams statewide.

“High school football is an integral part of our sport,” said Atlanta Falcons President Rich McKay. “Our recognition of Georgia High School Football allows us to reconnect with the roots of our game, and encourage the next generation of players and coaches.”

"We are thrilled to host the state finals this year and look forward to unveiling the helmet display in time for kickoff of the first game,” said Carl Adkins, Georgia Dome General Manager. “We have a great relationship with the GHSA and are very proud to have this opportunity to salute high school football in the Dome."

The helmet display includes all helmets received by October 30, 2008. Helmets received after October 30 will be added at a later date. Those high schools that have not sent their helmet in and are interested in representation should contact Kendyl Moss, Director of Community Relations for the Atlanta Falcons at 404-367-2064 or kmoss@falcons.nfl.com as soon as possible.
