Dexter High Just Won $25K — $1M Still Up for Grabs

It was a big weekend for Dexter Regional High School, during halftime of their 50-8 rout of Houlton on Saturday, they were presented with a $25,000 check as a finalist in the T-Mobile “Friday Night Lights” giveaway.

The clock is ticking to help Dexter Regional High School. They are currently ranked third in the country, for the $1 million grand prize, with over 410,000 votes cast.

We really need to move the ball downfield, because they have been stuck in 3rd for several days, so make sure you vote daily

Famous Mainers like Patrick Dempsey, and comedian Bob Marley, have lent their support to the cause!

Dexter Regional High School is one of 25, in the running for T-Mobile’s “Friday Night 5G Lights” competition — a national contest that awards a massive stadium and tech makeover to one deserving high school.

The program is designed to spotlight small-town schools by upgrading their football fields, weight rooms, and connectivity with state-of-the-art 5G technology, all while promoting school pride and community spirit.

Thousands of schools from across the country applied, and Dexter has already advanced to the next stage — a major accomplishment in itself.

In fact, none other than former New England Patriot, Rob Gronkowski, announced the news himself!

Now, not just the Dexter area community, but all of us, have a chance to help the Tigers win it all. Finalists compete for votes from the public, and the school that rallies the most support can receive a prize package valued at up to $1 million, including a $100,000 grant, stadium upgrades, a new weight room from Gronk Fitness, and more.

If you want to get involved, you can vote once per day, and every vote counts toward giving Dexter students and athletes a game-changing opportunity.

Let’s help put Dexter on the map — vote daily and show the nation what Maine pride looks like!

In addition to winning that incredible (and much-needed) upgrade, Dexter High School would not only receive a visit from Gronk, but you can also throw in the one and only, Patrick Mahomes in as well.

Remember, you can vote every single day, until October 24th, so get to it!

Let's go Tigers!
