As PR and Evart play their annual armed forces game we would like to remind all of our service men and women that they are guests of honor at this event and receive free admission. We will also be offering shirts with this logo during the game and profits will go to the Local VFW and National Military Families Association.

PRAS Community,
Friday's football game is referred to as the “Armed Forces” game. Continuing with the tradition, Pine River and Evart will play for the traveling Armed Forces trophy for the fourteenth time. The Trophy is currently held by the Wildcats.
More importantly, this game is a way for the communities and programs to honor those who have served or are serving in the military. We owe a great deal of thanks to all the men and women who have fought for our freedom. The two teams combine donations from the JV and varsity games, taking turns donating to organizations that support our veterans. This year's funds will be split evenly between the local VFW Post 7979 in Evart and Operation Purple of the National Military Family Association.
To date over $13,000 has been raised and donated to local and national organizations to help veterans and active military members as a result of this game and the generosity of our two great communities. Come out Friday night to support our Veterans and teams, enjoy the game, have a free hot dog and enter the game for free. Thank you for your continued support and continuing the tradition. Go Bucks!
