Clemson vs GA at new Augusta Green Jackets stadium
Feb 26, 2018, 2:06 PM

I will be attending but after passing by the stadium the other day I feel like they will be cutting it close to being finished by that date. Does anyone have any inside info on this? Maybe I just don't understand construction.

Have family down there and a cousin said regardless of them working around the clock, he would be surprised if they got it done and everything would be 100%.

it saddens me that Disgusta was able to get a new stadium, yet Savannah couldn't and had their MiLB team moved.

It's not in Augusta

The new stadium is in North Augusta. It's on the Savannah River, in a big new multi-use development. Augusta didn't seem to have any interest in building a new stadium, so now they can look across the river to see it.

Live in North Augusta and don't see it happening as well. Seems to still be a lot more work to be done and rain in forecast not going to help.

Greenville City and County Council made several years ago when they would not build the Braves a new stadium (which, by the way, was desperately needed).
The Braves made it clear they would leave unless a new stadium was built. The City/County refused and, as promised, the BRaves moved to Mississippi into a brand new stadium.
Fast forward a few years and the Greenville City/County Council built a brand new stadium for the Red Sox Single A affiliate

Considerably easier to support single A than double A.

Since I work for the GreenJackets, the stadium will be ready April 10th. It may look like it has a way to go, but it will get done. The turf will be installed the 2nd week of March. Look forward to seeing a great crowd.

Stadium will be ready. This coming from people involved in this project. Some parts of the $200 million project ( hotel, shops, 2nd parking deck and housing ) will not be ready. Project is to be completed by end of 2018. If you would like to see what it will look like go to northaugusta.net
