The Great Fish Community Challenge!
We are so excited to be participating again this year in this annual fundraising campaign put on by the Whitefish Community Foundation! This phenomenal 6-week campaign runs from August 4th-September 16th, 2022. WFCF has brought together 70 of the best nonprofits in the Flathead Valley and this is the opportunity to make your gift have an impact. Not only do we get to collaborate with other nonprofits in the Valley but the Whitefish Community Foundation guarantees a percentage match on the first $20,000 we raise. We hope you will consider donating to PWK in this year’s Challenge.
Our Clubs
Flathead Lacrosse
Fielding boys and co-ed teams, the Flathead Lacrosse Club carries on the tradition of what many consider America’s first sport. Lacrosse is one of the fastest-growing sports in the United States, and Flathead Lacrosse is proud to offer this game of skill, finesse, speed, agility, and brawn to the children of the Flathead Valley!
Flathead Rapids
The Flathead Rapids are dedicated to providing our local communities with high-quality soccer programs that focus on player development as well as personal growth. The Rapids look to create an environment that helps foster young players’ physical, mental, and social growth, ultimately creating great athletes and great citizens.
Whitefish Cal Ripken Baseball
Bringing America’s pastime to the Flathead Valley, the Whitefish Cal Ripken league fields T-ball, as well as rookie, minor, and major leagues. Whether your kid is new to the sport or a seasoned veteran, Cal Ripken baseball can accommodate. The club provides kids the opportunity to develop skills, cultivate sportsmanship, learn healthy habits, and have fun!
Whitefish Softball Association
The Whitefish Softball Association proudly brings softball to the children of the Flathead Valley, offering unique opportunities for young softball players to grow and thrive—while having fun! Whitefish Softball Association knows how crucial it is to learn physical health, social skills, teamwork, and leadership, and they are pleased to offer all this through softball.
Current Projects
Playground & Pavilion
The playground upgrade at Smith Fields is PWK's major undertaking of 2017 and 2018. While this project represents a sizable capital investment, this highly utilized area of the complex provides 450 families in the south end of Whitefish with their only neighborhood park, and it serves our athletes, their siblings, parents, and grandparents.
Reviving our Turf
Upkeep and maintenance of Smith Fields is our biggest job. Great Fish Challenge funds enabled us to purchase an aerator, plug pulverizer, and tractor to begin intensive turf restoration. This equipment, and added staff at the fields will help us return our grass to the lush, pristine turf needed to keep our kids playing fun and playing safe.
Field Resurfacing
Soccer and lacrosse fields number 4 is currently in need of resurfacing. Thisis one of the large projects PWK must look to tackle in the next few years. These kinds of necessary updates are made possible through your generoush donations!
