 The "Tuskers" have also formalized their charity outreach with the creation of the Kern County Rugby Association.  We all look forward to their upcoming activities and know there will be great times for a great cause.  If you have not seen rugby in action you can find information on their main website or Facebook page with practices and home games listed in the calendar section.  The team is currently playing 7's (think fast paced and high scoring) with 15's (the big guys) coming soon.  The club also has started a womens team which will sure to be exciting.
