That’s a wrap for our Senior All-Star girls at Regionals in Montana! 🌄🥎

They gave it their all and made us proud every step of the way. While it first appeared they had secured the sixth-place spot, a tie-breaker with Northern California (based on head-to-head play) pushed us just outside the bracket for finals.

It’s tough, but this group of girls played with heart, class, and determination. Representing Blythe and Arizona on a big stage is no small feat, and they did it beautifully.

Thank you to our amazing community for backing them all the way to Montana. Whether it was with donations, encouragement, or cheering from afar, this experience wouldn’t have been possible without our community. 🫶🏻💚💛

The thing we need the most now is healing Blythe, let's do it together...🙌🏽

Saturday September 13th from 5pm-9pm at Scott Stadium (667 N Lovekin Blvd, Blythe), in honor of Su***de Awareness Month, Peace From Chaos invites our community to join us for hope and healing at the 2025 Su***de Awareness Event and Community Candlelight Vigil.💎🫶🏽🕯

We as the Peace from Chaos family are not only grieving the lost Steven “Chaos” Camou; but many families have been affected locally by su***de. It is time to come together and heal as a community, not only for those lost to su***de but for everyone that we love who has passed. We miss then so much and we need to honor their memory together.❤️💞

No matter how or when our love ones leave us, their absence and death still cause heartache and mental anguish.🕊🤍

We have invited many organizations to attend this event. Some local, and some from throughout Riverside County who want to engage our community and provide valuable resources to us. Please come out and make those connections for your wellness.☮️🦋

While the Sun is still up during this memorable Saturday September 13th, we will have many local organizations and activities for the kids. There will be local entertainment. Guests will be speaking on the impacts of mental health. Free food will be serving up along with several other local vendors selling their wonder goods.🚲🎶
Come Check ‘em Out!😎🌞

As the evening sets in we will have a community candlelight vigil open for everyone to purchase a candle and honor anyone who has passed, not just from su***de but any love one you miss and want to honor during this very powerful show of respect, togetherness and healing.🌠🕯
