GIVING BACK TO OUR COMMUNITY! 💗

Congratulations to the SASC U9 Competitive Soccer Team for being our 2026 GRHS Foundation Pink Pumpkin Run Group Challenge winners! 🏆

Through our Pink Pumpkin Run, the GRHS Foundation not only raises funds to support local patients through our Pink Ribbon Fund, but also gives back to the schools, sports teams, and organizations that make our community stronger!

We loved getting to recognize these young athletes and present their team with $700! 💗

A BIG thank you to everyone who registered under SASC U9 and helped support their team. We hope these funds help them continue doing great things on and off the field!

Congratulations, SASC U9! ⚽🎉

THANK YOU, SINGING RIVER ELECTRIC! 🎀💗
