The Playmakers Draft Night and Annual BBQ

This event will celebrate the Playmaker MVP’s who have a heart for helping kids. The evening will include a tri-tip dinner, a no host bar, entertainment and a silent auction.

The Playmakers serves 100 third through fifth graders at four Title 1 elementary schools in the region, including Folsom, Rancho Cordova, Citrus Heights, and Woodland.

They are doubling their after-school program next year and will be working with 8 schools. Their program consists of 90 daily minutes  of reading/homework help, leadership/character development and physical fitness/outdoor recreation. The kids they work with are referred by administrators or teachers and are the most behaviorally challenged and disadvantaged.

Former Playmakers include Jordan Richards (Safety for the New England Patriots) and Harrison Phillips (All-American Defensive Lineman for Stanford and a top draft pick this year).

This program literally changes lives.
