Would you like to watch Western Colorado football games from the best seat in the house? If you're a football fan and have a thorough understanding of the game, your talents and expertise are in high demand.

Have you ever considered lending you football skills and knowledge to the local school teams? Those officials you see on the field don't just appear out of thin air. They are passionate football fans just like you who've made the decision to help support Western Colorado teams.

I've had several friends volunteer to be officials for Grand Junction area high school sports. Some football, others wrestling, others basketball. In each and every case they were enthusiastic about getting involved and found the experience very rewarding.

Why volunteer? Here are a number of reasons:

  • Make a difference.
  • Change someone's life.
  • Gain a whole new perspective.
  • Get inspired.
  • Learn new skills.
  • It's fun.

If interested, contact Steve at 589-9417.

It's hard to imagine a better way for fans to get closer to the game. Your expertise is requested. Volunteer today to be an official with Western Colorado high school football.
