What's Happening at Waverly
February 9th is Game Day, and we're helping to feed those in need with our traditional food drive!
Now until game day, please bring in non-perishable food. Our goal is to match the weight of the two heaviest players in the game! Cash donations are an option at $1 = 1 pound. Donations will go to Mainspring (formerly FISH).
Go, Team Waverly!
