Softball Classic
The Softball Classic introduces an element of spirited competition, with teams from the community, local businesses, and organizations participating in a friendly tournament. To make this event a complete success, Lunch Break is asking community members, businesses and corporate sponsors to step up to the plate and join our Softball Challenge lineup. In addition to the softball challenge, we’re treating our wonderful neighbors to food, games and music — all in the name of fun and community fellowship. Are you ready to pitch in for Lunch Break? Please click below to register for this year’s event. New and seasoned softball players are welcome to compete for the coveted game day trophy.
Don’t forget to bring your fans! Families and friends are invited to cheer for your team and enjoy the picnic. Registration proceeds will support the vital services Lunch Break provides to our neighbors in need, including basic needs, clothing, life skills, housing solutions, and family counseling services.
For School-Aged Children – Backpack Giveaway, Fun and Games
For school aged children, there is also the highly anticipated special giveaway of backpacks and school supplies, ensuring local students have everything they need as they prepare for the upcoming school year. There are also bounce houses, a fun bus and more!
Annual Wellness Fair
The Annual Wellness Fair, held in conjunction with the Annual Picnic and Softball Classic, serves as a valuable avenue for providing a wide range of information to attendees. In accordance with Lunch Break’s nutrition and community wellness initiatives, vendors and more than 30 community non-profits provide social services, preventive health-care and nutrition information, as well as health screening opportunities.
