Leading up to GameChanger Tailgate Event, The Bridge Sports Complex Hosting Instagram Contest

By Connect-Bridgeport Staff on May 11, 2022

As you've probably heard, there's something big coming to town. A June 3 tailgate event at The Bridge Sports Complex will mark its debut as West Virginia's first GameChanger facility. 
 
Leading up to that landmark event is an Instagram contest, open to kids in grade 6 and up. 
 
Create a post using the hashtag #drugfreeWV showing how you stand strong over the influence of drugs. Post pictures of you working, volunteering, being active outdoors, tapping into your creativity, playing with your dog - whatever! 
 
Three lucky winners will not only be featured in The Bridge's social media, but will also receive prizes at the tailgate event. 
 
West Virginia Game Changers is an initiative designed to educate, support and empower our youth to make healthy choices as they prepare to be our leaders of tomorrow. 
 
We can't wait to see your posts! 
 
The June 3 event will feature free food, music and fireworks, as well as competitive events. Special guest will be former first round NFL draft pick and second overall, Ryan Leaf, who struggled with opioid addiction following his NFL career. Leaf will speak June 3 shortly after 5 p.m. on the Citynet Center turf. Read more HERE.
