Friday night lights will seem more like Friday Night Lights starting October 9. The M.H.S.A.A. has released new guidelines for indoor & outdoor gatherings across the state. Local schools can now determine participant groups to be included with regular season contests. They include: players, cheerleaders, dance teams, pompon squads and bands. They also say if an outdoor event is in a football or soccer stadium, 30 percent seating capacity is allowed for up to a thousand spectators.
