In 2009, Waukee Stadium was renovated. The natural turf was replaced with FieldTurf, the old black track was taken out and a new purple one was installed. Also, a building was constructed, closing off the south side of the stadium. This new building consists of 3 locker rooms, meeting rooms, a training room, and a visitors' concession stand. In 2009, the stadium was used for the 5th grade field day. It is the fourth largest high school stadium in the state. The third largest high school stadium in the state is Valley Stadium (capacity of 8,000), behind Brady Street Stadium in Davenport (10,000) and Kingston Stadium in Cedar Rapids (15,000).
