[email protected] Playing baseball at South High's softball field has been challenging for both coaches and parents. Please show your support for Riviera Little League by attending the April 7th Torrance City Council meeting at 7:30 PM. The RLL Board is requesting City Council's approval to install lights, so that we can play in the evenings on our own ball field instead of at South High. We need to show how important lights are to us, and need as many coaches and parents to attend as possible. Please come show your support and wear your team shirt. Diamond Dust is published weekly every Friday and available at the Snack Shack or online at the RLL Website

Snack Shack Corner As you probably noticed, we have eliminated the use of the microphone to notify you when your order is ready. To that end, we ask that you check back for your hot order at WINDOW 3 before it gets cold. We appreciate everyone's effort to adopt the new process. Back by popular demand, our limited special, the Philly Cheesesteak Sandwich, will be available this weekend for $6.50. We will also have our delicious Loaded Tater Tots for $3.00! Get yours before they're all sold out!! As we head into mid-season, please be sure to sign up for your volunteer obligations, 2 Snack Shaft shifts per child, by April 25th or your deposit will be forfeited. Please email
[email protected] if you have any questions or need your check returned.
Let’s Play Ball!
