The Saskatchewan Roughriders are pleased invite fans to Green and White Day at SMF Field in Saskatoon on Saturday, May 28th.
Fans are encouraged to arrive early for the annual event which will feature an afternoon of football and fun, including inflatables, face painting, performances from the 620 CKRM Rider Cheer Team and 620 CKRM Rider Pep Band as well as fan interactions with Gainer the Gopher.
Back again this year is State of Rider Nation with Roughriders President and CEO Craig Reynolds, Vice President of Football Operations and General Manager Jeremy O’Day and Head Coach Craig Dickenson providing updates on the latest goings on with the football team.
