BRACK: Videoboards open up new opportunity for Duluth’s Formetco

BRACK: Videoboards open up new opportunity for Duluth’s Formetco

By Elliott Brack, editor and publisher | Once Duluth-based Formetco Inc. got into electronic billboards, could electronic scoreboards be far behind?

The 100-person Duluth company got national attention recently when it installed at Norcross High what is touted as the largest football “videoboard” (their term) in the United States. Measuring 29×51 feet, the board is impressive for many reasons, among them that a group of high school students, not professional technicians, run all aspects of the board. And sponsored advertising helped offset the purchase cost.

FOCUS: Story behind the giant videoboard at Norcross High School

By Harvey Snider, president, Norcross Touchdown Club | So, what’s the story on this new 31×50 foot videoboard at Norcross High School’s football field?

Back on August 23, 2014, Norcross High School Head Football Coach Keith Maloof looked across the field at the McEachern High School videoboard before leading his team to victory over Tucker in the Corky Kell Classic. (The game had been moved from the Georgia Dome since the Atlanta Falcons had a football game there on that date.)
