The dads are BACK. Balls are FLYING. B**r is COLD. And the annual tradition at JoeD did NOT disappoint. 🏆

This year we leveled up in a big way — a huge thank you to Chef David from .world for joining us and somehow arriving with the largest plate of tacos any human has ever witnessed.

Every donation goes straight back to Yick Wo Elementary — so the dads basically funded field trips one pallino at a time 🙌

Huge love to everyone who came out and made this another unforgettable Count-Me-In. See you on the courts next year. 👀

Our school's name is more than a name — and last week, we got to honor that. 🙏

We were proud to join and at 349 Third Street in SOMA to commemorate the 140th anniversary of Yick Wo v. Hopkins — the landmark 1886 Supreme Court ruling that established equal protection for all persons, citizens and non-citizens alike. That ruling was born right here in San Francisco, and its legacy lives on in our school's name every single day.

Thank you to for your support and for standing alongside our community in recognizing this history. And thank you to all the organizations who came together to make this commemoration happen — especially , , and the many Chinatown and Asian American community groups who have kept this story alive.

We are so proud that Yick Wo Elementary is part of this legacy. Our students carry his name — and now they know exactly what it means. ❤️🐼
