River Ridge is the home of the Little League World Series champions. The team went to South Williamsport, Pennsylvania and after losing their first game, won six in a row to take the title.
There's a party planned for this afternoon at the Shrine on Airline, it starts at four o' clock.
"Eastbank Little League, in concert with the Jefferson Parish Sheriff’s Office and Jefferson Parish, invites you to welcome home the Little League World Champions," JPSO Captain Jason Rivarde released. "The team will be escorted from the airport to the parking lot outside the Shrine on Airline to meet their fans."
If it is raining, the Jefferson Performing Arts Center will be opened for the homecoming celebration.
"Due to traffic congestion and concourse security concerns, we are jointly asking that everyone refrain from trying to greet the team at the airport. Come join all of us at the Shrine on Airline to welcome the boys home."
The celebration is set for the parking lot west of the stadium on Deputy James Clarius Drive near the Jefferson Performing Arts Center and the JPSO 4th District Station.
