📸 Photos this weekend! Times to come, just a reminder that Sheree is always on a tight timeline, efficient and if you're not there unfortunately you will miss out. It's always nice for parents to leave phones in pockets and leave the photo taking to the pro on this one! Sheree gives so much to our local sports, purchasing her images is a simple way to give back 👌🐝
