NEW YEAR'S DAY FUN WHILE PLAYING FOR PURPOSE!

When you step onto the court for the Mental Health Matters to ME Pickleball Tournament, you’re doing more than playing a game— you’re becoming part of something bigger. This 2nd Annual event is in memory of Derek Ramsay, who lost his life to mental illness and substance use disorder. Derek’s story is one of love and loss, but also of resilience, hope, and the power of community. Learn More
