Our Moorefield, WV, facility recently donated $2,250 to the Petersburg Junior High football team for the purchase of 30 guardian caps to enhance player safety. The caps, which provide an added padded layer to reduce impact, are essential as the team works to protect athletes and address concerns about concussions in youth football. Great work, team Moorfield!
