Join your section at 6:15 pm and we will gather at 6:30 pm for our kick-off.
Do you:
Need a new uniform?
Want to swap a uniform?
Have a uniform to donate?
If you do, we will have a table set up near the front entrance, during our kick-off. We will have some used and new uniforms for sale. We will also take orders if we do not have what you need. Or, if your youth has outgrown their uniform, bring it and you may be able to swap it for another used uniform, if one is available. In addition, we will gladly accept your donated uniforms to add to the 2nd Russell inventory.
