Editor,
On behalf of the Polson Youth Soccer Association (PYSA), I would like to thank the Live Locally Race Committee and Polson Running for choosing PYSA as the beneficiary of proceeds from the race this weekend. How heartwarming it was to see the dedication and enthusiasm these committees showed for our association, from the soccer-themed t-shirts and trophies, to the smiles that came to their faces every time we discussed PYSA and our plans for the future. Endless volunteer hours were spent on the planning and execution of this race, and we could not possibly be more humble or grateful for their support.
Soccer is the most popular sport in the world, and its popularity is exploding in the United States. Polson is no stranger to this phenomenon with PYSA serving close to 300 youth, ages 4-18, on an annual basis. With the help of funds received from the Live Locally race, we look forward to giving back to our community by developing a brand new soccer complex in the coming years, where we will be able to host tournaments and invite out of town soccer families and fans to enjoy our stores, restaurants, hotels, and community.
The mission of the Live Locally race is to promote healthy living within our community, and PYSA plans to do just that. Thank you to everyone involved in this race, including the committees, participants, volunteers, and many generous sponsors, for entrusting us with this gift.
