Join us Wednesday, August 26th at Elizabeth Park to support 2-4-1’s powerful mission: to help all kids grow through sport and social-emotional learning. Your support ensures all kids — regardless of background or zip code — have access to sports to grow, lead, and thrive.

You’ll enjoy fun, field day-style games — think backyard barbecue meets 2-4-1’s signature sport sampling camp — plus great food, signature cocktails, prizes, and a short program celebrating the impact of 2-4-1!

We are excited to celebrate local entrepreneur, trailblazer, coach, and cheerleader Stephanie Blozy as the recipient of this year's Play It Forward Legacy Award. Learn more about Stephanie here.

Event sponsorships and Team Captain (host committee) opportunities are still available! Email zeke@241play.org for additional information.

Last year’s inaugural Play It Forward event was a grand slam! See photos here (thanks to Frames of Serenityy!), and check out the recap video:
