Sport-A-Rama |
|
|
Every year since 1986, youth from housing authorities around the Commonwealth have participated in an end-of-summer Sport-A-Rama that brings youth together for a day of competitive sports. The Fall River Housing Authority (FRHA) participates every year. Boys and girls take part in long jump, 50 yard dash, soccer kick-off, football throw, three-legged race and other events. Fall River's team took first place in the event over-all in 2008. |
