operate in. We’re privileged to be able to give back in this way,” said Rick Davis.
Adam Brewer, a member of the Boys and Girls Club board, said, “I was thrilled when
Davis brought this idea to us. We were able to use the trip as an incentive for our kids to
focus on improvement and it really worked. They were excited for this trip and we saw
an immediate change in their attention to school work and behavior. We’re excited to
reward them for their hard work with a fun experience like this.”

the day at the stadium at no cost to their families. Davis hopes to make this an annual
event in which they partner with various local youth organizations within the community.
“This is an amazing opportunity to give these kids a day they’ll remember for a long
time. We’re so thankful to Davis for making it happen, and we look forward to working
with them again in the future,” said Shane Johnson, Executive Director of the Alachua
County Club.”
