Katie Samson Invitational Lacrosse Festival Is By Far My Favorite Camp


For those of you who do not know who I am (which for the sake of looking humble I will hope that it is the majority of you) my name is Justin Skaggs. I am the COO and partner at Stylin’ Strings Lacrosse. Our company has been a part of this great Lacrosse culture for a very long time, and every once in a while something comes along that makes us step back and feel a sense of pride for the community we operate in.

The Katie Samson Invitational Lacrosse Festival is a chance to look at the kind hearted nature of our sport. The fact that this event is held to fund a good cause is admirable enough, but it is the execution that makes it outstanding. On the 27th of April the campus of Radnor High school (which has held the LAX Pro Tour and many other events) will be transformed into an absolute Lacrosse blowout. Vendors, games, some of the best teams around facing off in regular season match ups, and even some familiar mascots and characters will litter the grounds of Radnor. These regular everyday people seek to provide entertainment for people of every age all in the spirit of kindness and giving. This event would even entertain someone who has never seen a stick.

Anyone who can make the trip out should. Of all the events I attend each year this one is on the top of the list. Everyone there holds a positive disposition, a love of the game, and an entertained smile. Disregard if you have a player participating. It is just a great time that benefits a good cause.

Lacrosse Playground

In 2009, Adam O’Neill, Harry Alford and Thomas Alford launched Lacrosse Playground as the preeminent site for lacrosse gearheads. For years Lacrosse Playground provided lacrosse fans with tutorials and tips on how to string a lacrosse head, up-close looks at the gear the top players used and sneak peeks at equipment and uniforms before they were released. More than 10 years and millions of visits later, Lacrosse Playground has relaunched with a focus on storytelling. Our mission is to provide comprehensive coverage of the latest lacrosse news, share insights into the sports betting and fantasy lacrosse world and showcase the lifestyles and personalities of the sport of lacrosse through articles, videos and podcasts.
