We intend to host a socially distanced outdoor country concert for the band, Midland, on Saturday, December 12th. I have included a link below to their Frisco, TX show from 10.17.20, and our event would be part of a 3 -city S. Texas tour through minor league stadiums. Round Rock (12.5) and San Antonio (12.11) will precede Corpus Christi's 12.12 date. https://www.bpmconcerts.com/friscomidland In accordance with Governor Greg Abbott's Executive Order, face coverings are required for individuals 10 years of age and older in public areas. Attendees will be required to wear masks while entering/exiting and moving around the ballpark. Attendees may remove their face coverings when sitting in their ticketed seat or standing in their pod. Fans and staff will also have a health screening form and temperature checks prior to entering the event. Anyone with a temperature over 101 will, unfortunately, not be able to attend, but will be given a full refund. The stage will be positioned in centerfield (see Exhibit A). Attendees with field tickets will be positioned in 6x6 "standing pods" socially distanced from surrounding pods. Seating bowl seats will be limited to pods of 2, 4 or 6 people. Seating bowl capacity (see Exhibit B) will be in a reduced manner that will not require patrons to pass another group entering/exiting a same row. Bathrooms and concessions will also enforce distancing and safety measures. As we evaluate each opportunity in the months ahead, it is our hope that we can position Whataburger Field as the ideal outdoor venue to safely perform community and corporate events. In doing so, we want to entertain families, elevate corporate morale and simply be a positive light as a community leader.
