SUPPORT MORRIS-SUSSEX SPORTS

As you all know, Morris/Sussex football has always been a consistent supporter of our program. We all enjoy following their newsreels each week during the season. (Our boys really enjoy it also!) This year, they want ALL to be able to enjoy their online subscription WITHOUT charging, but they are desperately in need of some financial support. Please go to www.morrissussexsports.com to watch their video and learn how you can participate in their funding campaign.
