***Capacity of each venue is to be determined by each local school district and city fire codes.
***Vouchers reserve your ability to purchase a ticket to enter the event.
At any time these recommendations may change as needed in response to the COVID-19 pandemic. The schools of the Four Rivers Conference ask that you respect these guidelines and recommendations which we feel will provide our student athletes with the safest competition environment possible. Our goal is to protect the structure of our season and allow our athletes the best opportunity to reach the natural conclusion to the fall sports season.
Thank you for supporting the Pacific Indian student athletes during their Fall 2020 season!
