If there is thunder and lightning we must leave the fields and seek shelter.
As we do not have sufficient shelter, everyone must go to their cars.
So please do not leave if you think there may be a thunder storm.
Games

We have home and away games!
ALL GAMES ARE SUBJECT TO CHANGE

The concession stand will be open the entire night!! Please stop by and eat with us–this is our biggest fundraiser!! We will have all of our usual great food and some delicious specials throughout the night!!
The Raffle Prize winners will be announced on the field during the Pep Rally.
Banquet
As always, we will have a banquet at the end of the season.
Each football player and cheerleader will receive one (1) ticket. All others will be $_____.
Tickets will only be available at equipment/uniform handins. No tickets will be available the day of the banquet.
**If you do not return any equipment or uniform you will be charged up to $300.00**
Volunteers are always needed. Please Help Us!!
During practices and games, your help is very important.
Games will not start and can be cancelled if we don’t have play counters and chain crews. Also, we can’t use the scoreboard or announcers without an adult scoreboard operator and someone to announce. Also, help in the concession stand is critical.
The entire program, including the property, is run by volunteers.
West Genesee Athletic Club owns and operates the sports complex.
With all of the participants, and the amount of paperwork required by Pop Warner, all volunteers are very important.
Please ask how you can help to make the Pop Warner experience a great one for all of the kids.
