❤️ THANK YOU, BLACKFALDS ❤️

We are still feeling incredibly grateful after this year’s 24 Hour Relay.

This event continues to get bigger and bigger every year, and that only happens because of the amazing people, teams, volunteers, sponsors, families, and community members who show up and support it.

We recently got the photos back from the event and they are absolutely amazing. They captured the laughs, the late-night walks, the costumes, the teamwork, the music, the smiles, and the heart behind what this event is all about.

To everyone who walked, donated, volunteered, sponsored, cheered, helped set up, cleaned up, bought a drink, entered a game, shared a post, or simply came out to be part of the weekend... thank you.

The 24 Hour Relay is more than just an event. It is a reminder of what can happen when a community comes together for something bigger than themselves.

All team captains will receive a link to the photos and can be shared with each team member.

From the bottom of our hearts, thank you for helping make this year another incredible success. ❤️

What a weekend. 🔥

The slo-pitch tournament is officially wrapped up, and what an incredible turnout it was! A ton of teams came out and battled it out all weekend long at Sterling Industries Sports Park, creating an amazing atmosphere filled with competition, laughs, and community spirit. 🥎

Huge thank you to the Kinsmen, Youth HQ, all volunteers, sponsors, players, and supporters who helped make the event such a success.

The Heart of Blackfalds Society was proud to help run the co****le tournament throughout the weekend and put together an awesome prize basket giveaway! 🎯🎁 It was great seeing so many people out enjoying the games, beer gardens, camping, live music, and everything the weekend had to offer.

Weekends like this show exactly what community is all about. ❤️
