Just a reminder for the football game at Woodhaven on Friday 10/10/25 - Woodhaven is anticipating a large crowd for the Friday night football game, as both teams are undefeated and looking to grab control of the league. Woodhaven has asked that we share this link in advance so you can purchase tickets online this week and avoid huge lines at the ticket window. We look forward to a great game and hope you can all make it out to support the team.
