Our History and Mission

Track Shack Youth Foundation, Inc. is a non-profit organization that supports health and fitness programs for our youth. The foundation was founded in 1994 by Jon and Betsy Hughes, who also own Track Shack and Track Shack Events, two companies that produce and sponsor athletic events in Central Florida. The foundation has donated over 3.5 million dollars to youth programs since its inception.

We believe that sports and organized athletic programs are essential for the well-being of children in our communities. They provide structure and goals, which help children grow mentally and physically. However, many schools are forced to reduce or cancel sports/athletic programs due to budget constraints. We want to support youth athletic programs in the community through financial assistance, so that these valuable programs can continue for children. Programs that boost self-esteem and confidence, promote healthy and positive habits, and develop leadership and cooperation skills.
