Event Recap

Thank You for Coming Out

Thank you to every team, player, sponsor, vendor, and spectator who came out to the 21st & 22nd Street beach in Ship Bottom for the Summer Send-Off Volleyball Tournament. Local businesses built their teams, the courts stayed busy from the first serve to the trophy presentation, and the whole evening supported youth and family wellness in our community.

Congratulations to our champions, and thank you to the sponsors whose support made the tournament possible. We hope to see every team back on the sand next summer.

Strong Mind. Strong Body. Strong Future.

About the Event

How the Evening Went

Local restaurants and businesses each built a 6–8 player team and met on the beach for a community-driven tournament, with music, food, and a family-friendly crowd on the sand. Every entry and every sponsor helped fund the recreational, enrichment, and wellness opportunities at the heart of the Strong Grounds Foundation mission.
