4th Annual 58er Ride

On December 17th, 2021, Team Cont;nue had the honor of being the chosen charity for the 2021 Cross Town Charity Game between Stoney Creek High School and Rochester High School.

Team Cont;nue raised just over $3000. Over 300 shirts were distributed to players, and fans, specifically Stoney Creek High School's student scetion, "The Core". It was a sea of gold as the gymnasium represented Team Cont;nue.  

Team Cont;nue recognized some very important people to our foundation:

• Art Ingram and Regina Murray and Common Ground for their tireless work this past month supporting the Oxford Community. In 2021 Team Continue awarded $2000 to this organization.
