SRYA Gears Up For The Holidays And Closes Out Fall Sports

The holidays are right around the corner and South River Youth Athletics (SRYA) would like to help save you a bit of money and earn a bit for the organization at the same time. This is also the time of year where we enjoy our end-of-season fall sports parties, congratulate our champions and look forward to winter sports.

If your household has a young athlete or an older one for that matter in it, then chances are pretty good you'll be at Modell's at some point during your holiday shopping. Modell's has a great selection, great prices and terrific sales people who are courteous, knowledgeable and always ready to help. Before you head out the door, print out the SRYA Modell's coupon and save 15% on your purchase. SRYA gets a percentage of all sales and the coupon can be reused from Nov. 25 through Dec. 25. Print out a few extra to keep in your car or clip them to the kids' wish lists to Grandma and Grandpa. Friends and family would love to save some money too and SRYA would love to earn a little at the same time. To get your 15% off Modell's coupon go to www.srya.org/modells_coupon_fall2011.pdf. 

In between shopping and baking and decorating, you're going to have a few party invites as well and after wrestling with four other moms for that newest burping doll every little girl has got to have, you may be in need of a hair appointment. Thankfully, there is Cut Loose Hair Salon right on Mayo Road. Between Nov. 22 and Dec. 31 Cut Loose has offered to give 10% back to SRYA to fund the scholarship fund and new equpment. If that wasn't good enough, wear your SRYA spiritwear or jersey and get a surprise discount! Cut Loose Salon is located at 200 Mayo Road. Call (410) 956-8150 to make an appointment.

As we close up SRYA fall sports, I'd like to say thank you to all the families who supported our sports teams, the players who played their hardest and to all the coaches and volunteers who gave up their time for the kids. Your hardwork and sacrifices are greatly appreciated. Congratulations to our SRYA fall champions!

Congratulations again to our SRYA fall champs and thank you to our SRYA teams who didn't make their championships for a great fall season! I encourage everyone to take advantage of our SRYA discounts that in turn will benefit our organization and the kids. Be safe while you're traveling around shopping and enjoy your holiday festivities.
