June RCR Newsletter
This month, home teams wrap up RCR's Season 6 with two fiercely competitive weekends, starting with the Closing Scramble on June 3rd-4th and ending with the Championship Bout at Portland Expo Center on June 18th. Get your tickets from our online store. Seats are limited and both events will sell out fast, so get your tickets today! That means NOW, before you forget, miss out and end up doing something really lame instead.
