Our Story

A small group of locals decided to get together and reminisce about the times they shared with two close friends that had passed too soon, Ryan Michelbrink and Dave Fernandez. 

​

These friends decided to never forget them, and instead celebrate them. Both Ryan and Dave were active in local sports and the community, so the group of friends decided to host an event, where all ages would enjoy a fun day of sports.

 

All proceeds raised would be donated to the Southeast Volusia Youth Sports organization in honor of Ryan and Dave and all the friends they have lost too soon. The idea was born and “The Event” hosted their first challenge in 2018.
