Construction continues at Sportsplex, events being booked

Construction still continues apace on the Hopkinsville-Christian County Sportsplex and Marketing and Events Coordinator Chris Jung says they’re already booking events there.

Jung says they still intend to open the facility in the fall and they already have events scheduled for November.

Updates on construction and events happening at the facility can be seen on the Hopkinsville Sportsplex Facebook page. Jung says he has people calling every day who are interested of renting out the space and people can also rent out a place to hold meetings or parties.

He says once construction is done on the Sportsplex, the expansion at the James Bruce Convention Center and the new Holiday Inn, the goal is for the three buildings to be connected.

Jung says it’s exciting to be a part of sports tourism right now, especially in Hopkinsville, where the opportunity for economic impact and development is very high. Anyone interested in scheduling an event can call 270-887-4290 or go online here.
