Things We LikeWow, what a weekend! From an exciting Friday Night rivalry game to a spectacular car show on Saturday, this band knows how to represent! A huge shout out to Les and Owenn Skulski and Josh Parrish for all their time put in to making the first annual car show a success and a special thanks also to all the volunteers who helped out too. We have created a great momentum for next year's show to be even bigger and better! Parent volunteers neededWe are still in need of volunteers for this Friday night's game vs. James Clemens.
