Dear Ridge View Community Members:
The Ridge View Activities Department is still in search of some volunteers to help at our Winter sports activities. Here is a more detailed description of some of the positions we are looking to fill.
Clock Operator- Only responsibility is to start and stop the clock.
Scoreboard Operator - Runs the scoreboard including points and fouls and also operates the player panels. It may seem like a daunting task but can easily be learned.

If you could see yourself filling one of these roles on either a regular basis or fill in role please contact Activities Director Joel Brus at the High School.
Please consider volunteering your time to help make Ridge View athletics ELITE!
