MYO and the Mason Challenger League are  partnering with the City of Mason as well as the Mason Parks & Recreation Foundation to raise funds to build the Adaptive Ball Fields at Makino Park. These fields will only become a reality through the generosity of companies and community members like you. Consider making a lasting impact to the Challenger athletes through a sponsorship opportunity.

UPDATE ON FUNDRAISING:  We continue to make progress with the help of our community and local companies & businesses.  Thank you!    Look for more updates coming soon.
