Beef & Beer Planning Meeting, Tues 10/22

We’ll be having a planning meeting on Tuesday 10/22 at 7:00PM at Holy City Publick House to discuss this year’s beef & beer event (scheduled for Friday, December 6th). We’re asking for some help from our Gloucester Wrestling family. If you’re able to help out, we encourage you to attend this meeting.

If you didn’t already know, our annual beef & beer event is the largest of the season for us. We’re looking for some volunteers to help out with a few things to make sure the event is a success. If you can, come to the meeting and help us kick off the start of what’s sure to be a great season!

Parade Tonight 12/6

All practices are cancelled for tonight because the entire Gloucester Wrestling team, from youth through high school, has been invited to walk in the Christmas parade. If your child is interested in walking with the team, please meet by 6:15pm on Johnson Blvd by the truck for Gloucester City School District.

Wear Gloucester Wrestling attire, if you have some. Any questions, call Coach Doc at 609-634-8843, or email us at info@gloucesterwrestling.com.

 

Got Beer?

Attention parents: We’re still looking for some additional cases of beer for our infamous Beer Tower! The beer tower is sure to be a sight to behold at this Friday’s Beef & Beer, and we would greatly appreciate it if you would be willing to donate a case for the cause.

If you’re able to help, let us know by filling out the contact form here on our website, or speak to one of our coaches directly.
