Each year, we hold the best bracket challenge around! Because it’s not just about college basketball, the one shining moment, the cinderella story, or the buzzer beaters. This bracket challenge has a mission, a purpose - to invest in the next generation of leaders in Portland and Lewiston through Rooted Mentoring! https://www.therootcellar.org/madness
