2023 Tournament Recap
Last year, we initiated a heartfelt tradition with the inaugural Lewiston Strong Memorial Benefit Softball Tournament. This one-day event illuminated the strength of our community, uniting us through the sport we cherish.
Featuring 25 teams, local food trucks, a raffle, and an auction, the day was further enhanced by celebrity appearances from Patrick Dempsey, Bill Lee, and mascots from the Maine Celtics and Portland Sea Dogs. Teams and communities from across the region joined together in a remarkable blend of competition and compassion, all while paying tribute to those we've lost.
Together, we raised $207,853.
All funds raised from the event were dedicated to the families of the victims, providing them with support in their time of need and ensuring that the legacy of those lost continues to inspire and support our community.
