The James Monroe Chapter Color Guard along with the War of 1812 Society in Virginia presented the colors for the opening program for the Richmond County Little League  season. This year the James Monroe Chapter sponsored a team of minor league players. On that team is member Colt Belfield along with member Brennen Belfield as coach. By sponsoring a team the Richmond County Little League displays a banner with the James Monroe Chapter Virginia Society on an out field fence. Also the Sons of the American Revolutions name is displayed on the back of the teams uniforms. The little league season begins now and last well into fall with thousands of children, parents, friends and relatives attending. Every time the Mets minor league team plays the Sons of the American Revolution banner will be displayed. Every person that attends the game will walk by our banner because it is located on the out field fence next to the park entrance.
