Helicopters Hovering Over Campus

After last week's non-stop rain, our football field here at R-MC resembled more of a pond, than a playing surface. In preparation for "The Game," the newly created pond had to be transformed into a football field. "The Game" is the long standing rivalry between R-MC and Hampden-Sydney. This year was the 115th edition of "The Game" and was played here in Ashland in front of over 5,000 fans.

Thanks to some very generous R-MC supporters, 2 helicopters hovered over the field to spray the water to the periphery. Mr. John Irby got a great shot of the whole scene.
