Jones County High School Greyhounds |
Jones County was a school Tonya and I came across on our way back from south Georgia. I think it was the last one we visited on the trip because I remember the camera dying while we were taking pictures, which is why there are only four of them. I apologize for not having more, especially one that shows the whole stadium or the sign of the school.

Home side of the field |
The home side of the field is a decent size. This is a quad-A classification high school, and small one at that with the enrollment at 1,171 (schools w/ 1850+ students are placed in five-A). The far left side of the stands are shorter than the main section and was an addition in the past several years. Now there are no lines on the field yet, but these seats seem very close to the field which is awesome. The concession stand and booster club tent are right near by which is clutch for every fan and the scoreboard is visible to all. It's a very standard home-stands look, but it is functional in every way.

Thats the visitors side, and my gf in the picture. Her hair really isn't that poofy, windows rolled down will do that to long hair haha. Sorry Tonya! (it does look like something out of the 80s. |
The one thing I like about the visitors stands at Jones County is that it gives the visiting band a section all to themselves. To me that is nice so that the fans do not have to worry about the band standing up or being in the way the entire game. Concessions aren't that close by, but definitely within hurry distance if you're needing to get back to the action. Also once again, let me point out how different the light poles are in the Georgia and Alabama stadiums than the oil rig looking light poles that a lot of the Texas stadiums have.

Entrance into the stadium. |
This is a gorgeous entrance. Nice gated area, great statue and plaque to give the visiting fans a unique piece of information about Jones County. It also gives me a nice shot of the scoreboard which is the type of scoreboard that should be standard at every high school. JCHS has a typically standard high school stadium but the entrance and the hound pound sign are two things that set it apart.
