**STRIVE Rocks 2020 is postponed. We hope to reschedule for the fall.**
STRIVE Rocks Weekend is STRIVE's biggest fundraiser of the year! All proceeds from the events support STRIVE- a South Portland based non-profit that supports over 1,000 tweens, teens, and young adults throughout Maine with intellectual disabilities.
This year's event is taking place May 2nd and 3rd at the Cross Insurance Arena in Portland. STRIVE Rocks weekend is a full weekend event that is split into two parts; STRIVE Rocks ALL DAY and STRIVE Rocks ALL NIGHT. Information about both events is below, though more information and ticket purchasing can be found at www.striverocks.org

This portion of STRIVE Rocks is geared toward families and younger children. We have a number of bounce houses and inflatables, musical acts, performances, arts and crafts and demonstrations.
STRIVE Rocks ALL NIGHT- 8pm, Saturday, May 2nd- 8am, Sunday, May 3rd
This portion of STRIVE Rocks is geared toward young adults (high school/college students, and our clients). Originally referred to as our dance marathon, participants stay on their feet for 12 hours straight, raising money for and awareness of our programs. Participants collect pledge dollars in advance in order to participate. This is a great opportunity for high school groups (clubs, sports teams, friend groups). Members of the STRIVE team are happy to visit different schools to speak about the event.
*There are many volunteer opportunities available for this event. Please contact STRIVE Program Director, Whitney Wildes, at wwildes@pslstrive.org to find out how to get involved!*
