⚾ The "Argo Sparks" are officially on the field!

The Lights On Collective is happy to coordinate this new community activation at Argo Park in partnership with JM Prospects.

Shaun Ellison is leading the activation on behalf of The Lights On Collective and helping shape the community, youth and family experience. Jeff and Mike of JM Prospects are providing professional baseball instruction and facilitating game play.

Together, we are creating an environment where young players can build skills, gain confidence and have fun!

Special thanks to the Summit Community Network and Summit Park District for their partnership and support in helping us bring this experience to life at the newly enhanced Argo Park. And thanks to N9 for their ongoing Argo community support.
