Last month, we shut Curtis Park DOWN. 🎥 by the incomparable @_blackson_ (s/o to @juliandonaldson for the drone footage) 🎵: “2Fast” by the homie @dealzmakesbeats . Starring your favorite neighborhood ballers, and of course, your humble commish 😉
After a hard fought 16 team tournament, we crowned our first @seifxseifwest 2 on 2 champs! Congrats to our winners, Prestige Worldwide! (@imnotmars and @a_tonof_brickz ) Thank you to everybody who played, showed up, or donated! Together, we raised SIX THOUSAND DOLLARS for charitable causes, to be split between the @tdfcommunity Black Resilience in Colorado Fund (who are matching our donation ❤️), Our Vision for Ethiopia, dedicated to building the country’s first children’s hospital, and @48forchange , helping to provide free meals to low income families with children during school closures. It’s amazing what we can do when we come together as a community.
Thank you to all of my friends who helped make this possible: @asty_@daytonasound@thehexkitten@iamgruv@mokingcole@hashtagthisiswhyihaveaclubfoot@ray_raysgourmetgrill@its_a_bodega , and all the players and spectators! Who’s ready for 3 on 3?!
Definitely not the birthday, or the year, that I expected. The last few months have illustrated some of the many challenges that we face as a society, and have also provided me hope in our ability to create change through communal, collaborative action. Looking forward to a better future, and the huge, wild party I’m gonna throw when this is all over 😈 🎂. Taking the day to myself, but you know where to find me this weekend ✊🏾
