The Emerging Philanthropist Program (EPP), a partnership between Harrisburg Young Professionals (HYP) and The Foundation for Enhancing Communities (TFEC) will be hosting its first-ever Harrisburg Hoopla! Harrisburg Hoopla is a just-for-fun track and field day for adults. Our goal is to unite the local community, boost our economy, and raise money for local nonprofit organizations through friendly track and field competitions.
Harrisburg Hoopla will be a full day event consisting of teams competing in fun activities such as bubble soccer, tug-o-war, relay races, volleyball, dizzy bat, dodgeball, and more! Each team will represent a local nonprofit organization of their choice and compete to donate a portion of the event’s proceeds to their favorite charity.
We will celebrate the end of a great event with live music from two local bands. During the concert, we will announce the Harrisburg Hoopla team winners and the amount of funds raised for our community. The band names will be announced closer to the event day.
