We had a fantastic day of Pickleball last weekend, hosted by the Heroes United Club at River Hill High School! Organizers filled 10 courts with players, then all were treated to demonstrations by the K9 section, drones and motorcycles. Special thanks to Ester Balakirsky and Sydney Case, who connected with the Foundation for their fundraiser!

We were so happy to support an afternoon of fun and team building for the PLEDGE program, a fantastic youth leadership and mentoring program for 9th graders.

As part of our P.L.E.D.G.E. (Pride, Leadership, Education, Diversity, Growth and Evaluation) youth leadership and mentoring program, school resource officers took Howard County high school students to yesterday afternoon's Orioles game! The outing is one of several field trips the program takes throughout the year on school's out days.

Thanks to the Howard County Police Foundation, Howard County Police Officers Association, and Centurions For Justice for donating the tickets!
