Best Under the Sun Athletic Banquet

The Best Under The Sun banquet is an Athletic Banquet partnered with the Jonesboro Sun to honor Northeast Arkansas “best athletes under the sun”.
A ticket to the banquet will include dinner, a speech from a guest speaker, and the presentation of athletes to receive their awards. Professional pictures will be taken of each athlete in attendance and will be made viewable to you on our social media platforms.
What is great about the banquet is that it is hosted by and benefits CityYouth Ministries, a local non-profit that provides an afterschool program for underserved children in the Jonesboro community. For more information, please visit our website at www.cityyouthministries.com
