The Bitterroot Valley soccer community will have a sunrise remembrance service on Thursday, September 4 at the Stevensville soccer complex to mark the first anniversary of Ralph Serrette’s passing.
Serrette, Stevensville’s longtime men’s head soccer coach, died on September 4, 2024 at the age of 77. Serrette and Stevensville soccer were intertwined for 30 plus years. Serrette started coaching the Stevensville High School boys team in 1995 and was the program’s only head coach until this season.
Organizers ask that the attendees be at the high school soccer field by 6:45 a.m. and meet in the flagpole area to be prepared to share the 7:00 a.m. sunrise. Participants are asked to bring a flashlight to make their way to the flagpole area. Light refreshments will be served after. Contact Cathi Cook at (406) 240-3705 for more information.
