It has been brought to our attention that someone is attempting to solicit monetary donations for a Riverside Wrestling Team. Riverside currently does not have a wrestling team, nor do we have anyone fundraising at this time. This is a scam solicitor. Please do not donate to anyone calling on our behalf. Our community has a giving heart and is always very supportive of our needs. If you receive a call, please be cautious about giving any information to avoid giving to a scam. Please call us if you have questions.
