Since its inception in 2002, the Joes Sports & Outdoor Foundation has raised over $950,000 to support youth organizations in areas where Joes Sports & Outdoor stores are located.
Loy Hibbs, Spokane Valley Store Manager, said, “Were thrilled to present these grants from the Joes Sports & Outdoor Foundation. These organizations focus on engaging youth in athletic and recreational programs, and encourage an active and fit lifestyle. Thats something we really care about.”
Hibbs went on to say, “Its great that were opening before fall and winter arrive. This store has a Sport Services department where, in the months ahead, you can have your skis or snowboard tuned up, rent snowshoes and other winter sports equipment, or have a sport rack or cargo box professionally installed on your vehicle.”
