Third Time’s A Charm!
Thank you for everyone’s patience and flexibility through our previous postponements, but the issue with the field conditions still needs to be addressed. Saturday’s forecast is 50 degrees and sunny, so an ideal day to hang out with your friends on a (soon-to-be) rugby pitch.
The work day is rescheduled for Saturday, Feb. 22nd. We need 20-30 people so show up! The more bodies we have, the quicker the work will go.

Who: 30 HRFC members, players, fans, alumni, anyone willing to help!
