Our 2023 Battle of the Boards Cornhole Tournament was a huge success!

SAIL would like to thank everyone who contributed to making our 2023 tournament a success!  Thanks to our sponsors and 17 teams, we raised $3,150 for our One in Five campaign which funds five of SAIL's programs that promote independent living and accessibility for all in the U.P.

Congratulations to Two is Better for taking first place and Team Fire for coming in second!  The sportsmanship award went to team Cos-Jo.

 

SAIL invests in and serves individuals living with disabilities across the U.P.

We hope any individual who might need SAIL in the U.P. will use us for peer support, independent living skills building, self-advocacy and gaining the confidence to live their best life.

We are here for you! Call us today at 906-228-5744.
