🏓 4th Annual Jerry Lasiter Pickleball Challenge
Join the Clark-Pleasant Education Foundation for the 4th Annual Jerry Lasiter Pickleball Challenge—a morning of friendly competition, community spirit, and giving back!
Whether you're an experienced pickleball player or just learning the game, this tournament is designed for players of all ages and skill levels. Come enjoy one of the fastest-growing sports while helping provide scholarship opportunities for Whiteland Community High School graduates.
🎉 Celebrating a Major Milestone
This year's tournament marks an exciting new chapter.
Thanks to the incredible generosity of Jim Lasiter and the amazing support of our community over the past three years, we are proud to announce that we have reached our $100,000 goal to permanently endow the Jerry Lasiter Memorial Scholarship.
Because the scholarship is now fully endowed, Jerry's legacy will continue to provide scholarships to Whiteland Community High School students for generations to come.
While we celebrate this incredible achievement, the tournament's mission continues. Proceeds from this year's event will benefit two Clark-Pleasant alumni scholarships:
🎓 The Michael L. McElwain and Donna J. (Esteb) Scholarship
🌾 The Haveman Family Agricultural Scholarship
By participating, you'll help continue Jerry's spirit of generosity while investing in even more Warrior students as they pursue their educational dreams.
