A special invitational only event for some very special teen foster boys in Middle Tennessee!
REGISTRATION IS FULL!
On June 8th, the VYMC will host an event in collaboration with Jonathan’s Path, a non-profit that supports teen’s in the TN foster care system with wrap-around services to support these deserving youth all the way through early adulthood. As a result of our successful holiday event we hosted, we have decided to bring these kids back for a field day event at the Titan’s facility where they will get to watch a Titan’s practice, followed by supportive processing groups, games and lunch. Hosted by:

The VYMC consists of a group of young men that meet monthly for mutual support, brotherhood and service work. This group’s founders are Mike and Jen Vrabel and Dean Porterfield, and the group has just celebrated its 1-year anniversary. Special thanks to Dean Porterfield, Executive Director at ARCH Academy for your support of both organizations! Watch the holiday video and learn more about that event here.
