Today was a special day as we celebrated Troy Chilton as a recipient of the Louis A. Dawson Award, Tab Recreation’s highest volunteer distinction.

Established in 1957, the Dawson Award honors adult volunteers who have demonstrated extraordinary service to Tab Recreation, while remembering the legacy of Louis A. Dawson and his devotion to the program.

Troy, congratulations on this well-deserved honor! Your time, leadership, generosity, and commitment to serving others have made a meaningful difference. I’m incredibly grateful for all you have done for Tab Recreation and for the people and families you have impacted along the way.

It was an honor to celebrate you today and to see you recognized among the outstanding volunteers who have received this award over the years.

Congratulations, Troy! Thank you for everything you give to our community.

Congratulations, Kaiden Martin!

Tab Recreation is proud to congratulate Kaiden Martin on being awarded the Bud Harris Scholarship!

Kaiden has been an outstanding member of the Tab Recreation family. He played two years of soccer at Tab and four years of football with the Tab Bears. He has also generously given his time back to the program by volunteering with flag football as a coach, as well as helping with concessions and scorekeeping.

A graduate of Cathedral High School, Kaiden was a member of the wrestling and football programs, where he was the starting left tackle, and he also played rugby for the Royal Irish. He graduated with an impressive 3.8 GPA and will continue his education at Marian University, where he plans to pursue a degree in Exercise Science.

Kaiden is extremely grateful to receive this scholarship and credits his father and mother, along with his coaches and mentors at Tab, for instilling the faith, character, work ethic, and values that have guided him throughout his journey.

We couldn’t be more proud of Kaiden and all that he has accomplished and we can’t wait to see what the future holds! Congratulations, Kaiden! We wish you continued success at Marian University!

This week has been a bust for soccer practice! Unfortunately, there is a fair amount of lightning moving into the area, and with the fields already soggy and wet, we are going to cancel soccer practice for tonight.
We appreciate your understanding and hope to get everybody back on the fields on Saturday!

🏈 What a weekend for Tab Saints football!

Our kids brought energy, heart, and hustle all game. You could see the growth in every rep, every play, and every huddle. This is exactly what youth football should be about: kids having fun, building confidence, and getting better together. Huge shoutout to our coaching staff for the preparation, patience, and leadership they brought to the sideline. You all make this program what it is!

Now let's do it again this Saturday! Come out and support our teams:

🏈 (3-4) Saints vs Pike — Pike High School
🏈 (K2) Red Dogs vs Saints — Howe

Bring the whole family and let's fill the stands for our Saints! See you there! 🙌
