RFC Donation Drive
For our new location, we're planning to transform 11,200 square feet into a state of the art training facility, with a cushioned sports court floor, 36 practice strips, larger locker rooms, improved heating and cooling, a comfortable cafe style parent waiting area, and so much more!
We need your help to fund the one-time cost of construction and move! You can purchase a commemorative tile, sponsor a fencing strip, or become a Gold or Platinum Level Sponsor.
If you donate by August 1, your donation will be matched up to a total of $10,000 by a very generous friend of the club!! Please click the button below to submit a donation online. You can also donate by reaching out to Ann at the club.
