Regina's new stadium officially becomes 'Mosaic Stadium'

Work continued Wednesday as Regina’s new stadium officially became “Mosaic Stadium”.

The lettering for the new stadium started going up Tuesday on the east side of the structure.

By the end of the day, only the “ic Stadium” part of the lettering was complete.
