"One of the great things about the CFL is the accessibility," Reynolds said. Rider State of the Nation allows fans like Mongovius, who sat in the front row, to ask the burning questions to head coach Craig Dickenson, president and CEO Craig Reynolds and general manager Jeremy O'Day. The afternoon featured more than just live music, the Rider Pep Band, games and of course a formal skirmish. "And it's such a thrill that they would come up to Saskatoon year after year and host training camp here because they are the Saskatchewan Roughriders, not the Regina Roughriders." "That's one of the best things about being a Rider fan is you get to know the players," she said. One of her favourite parts of the Canadian Football League resuming each spring is the community, fan-driven events like the annual Green and White Day at SMF Field. Arlene Mongovius has been a proud Saskatchewan Roughrider fan her whole life.
