Who’s ready for some football?

If waiting until fall is torture for the pigskin lover in your family, good news Columbus fans! Grab your face paint, load up your munchies, grab your lawn chairs and get ready. You can get your fix with a Columbus Marauders NPSFL Division II Championship Game next weekend.

The Marauders are part of the National Public Safety Football league which is a union of public safety agency football teams from throughout the United States. The teams are comprised of first responders: our boys in blue, with their brothers the firefighters, EMT, military and detention personnel. They’ve come together to promote a positive self-image to the public by raising fund for charity through spirited competition. These hearty guys risk their lives to keep us safe everyday, but when it comes to the playing field, don’t even think they let off the gas a tiny bit, “(i.e., “spirited). Their grit runs deep, and they’re ready to rumble in their last game of the season – which you have the opportunity to attend. 

Come out on June 26^th to cheer on our Columbus Marauders as they play against the Atlanta Defenders at 6 p.m. at World Harvest Prep. All gate sales will benefit Get Behind The Badge, a Central Ohio Charity which gives financial aid to the families of police officers and firefighters killed or critically injured in the line of duty.

Tailgating begins at 3 p.m. T-shirts are available  - check out their website or follow them on facebook for more details.

Find the Parrett Group wearing their foam fingers by the grill. Go Marauders!
