Today’s #TBT takes us back to the LaxFest at Beavercreek High School (BHS) last month. Lady lacrosse players from schools around Dayton, Cincinnati and Columbus came together to play mini games. This annual event promotes the sport, allows the opportunity for a little practice and raises money for Sub for Santa. Later this year, the BHS lax team will purchase Christmas gifts and dinner for a Beavercreek family in need. What an awesome way to support our athletes and our community! #BcreekSchools
