Sign up to work Redskins games! It is a great way to earn money for<br />
the team, your personal NOVA account, cheer on the Redskins, get<br />
some exercise and get some quick cash in tips to boot. Contact<br />
Rookie for more details (rookie_k@hotmail.com) about games. If you<br />
are an alumni and are interested, let Rookie know - you can keep the<br />
tips and then designate your favorite NOVA player to donate the earnings<br />
to. This might be a super expensive season when the team<br />
makes Nationals, so working games is a great fundraiser.
