Please join us for a memorable morning as we work alongside our honorary chairs, Maria and Mike Norvell, to celebrate 30 Years of the Winning Spirit reflecting on Florida State University's first National Championship and first Heisman Trophy Winner in 1993. 

We are delighted to announce that David Ross, the Manager of the Chicago Cubs and notable Tallahassee native, will be our Featured Guest for Charlie's Chalk Talk. His insights and experiences in Major League Baseball will inspire and motivate us all.

Additionally, we are honored to present the 5th Charlie Ward Distinguished Excellence Award to Coach Sue Semrau. The inaugural Ann & Bobby Bowden Family Legacy Award will be presented to Dr. Tom Haney and Dr. A.D. Brickler (posthumously) & Mrs. Dorothy Brickler..

This event will support the Ward Family Foundation's expansion to offer more transformational programming for youth and families to experience personal growth in mind, body, and spirit that will equip them to walk in their destiny and impact their worlds.

Embracing the research that youth sports can help mitigate mental health, build self-esteem, foster a strong sense of community, empower the discovery of passions and purposes, and equip young people to be contributing citizens, the foundation is committed to being a part of the solution to cultivating a community of Champions on and off the field!

Your presence will be instrumental in raising crucial funds for the organization's growth, supporting youth character development through sports, STEAM, wellness initiatives, and disaster relief efforts with transformational programming for youth and families to experience personal growth in mind, body, and spirit that will equip them to walk in their destiny and impact their worlds.

Together, let's build a brighter future for our youth and make a lasting impact on their lives. Be part of this transformative journey, and join us for a morning of inspiration and hope.
