Raise funds to install DHS lights Funds are already being raised for Project D-Lites, the plan to install lights on the DHS athletic fields. The Donegal Adults Booster Club hopes to raise $12,000 for lights in the next few weeks. Only private funds will be used to finance the project. The cost of opera- ting the lights will be about $10 per hour. Night games generally attract more fans than afternoon contests.
