S 1 E 6 Executive Director Bruce O'Neel - From A Farm Boy To Working A Corporate HR World To Wind Up Giving Back To A Community Through More Than A Sports Complex

It all started with the vision of Jason Macdonald and Eric Crouch in 2015 to begin the Elkhorn Athletic Association, where the goal was to bring all of the sports clubs under one umbrella. With everything heading in the right direction giving back to the local community brings Bruce O'Neel, who joined the team in 2018 after living the working life in the Corporate HR World. When you grew up on a farm where you're used to working hard, dedication, and teamwork to have high success rates, why not give back to not just a single city but a community to connect cultures, sports, and a future with a possibility to be a part of something bigger than just these 3 guys making history but a big statement that all kids deserve an opportunity. With the help of sponsors, donations, and volunteers, you can create a bright future for over 6,000 kids amongst 9 sports. What mark are you trying to leave on this Earth? Try bringing a highly needed sports complex that could eventually get 1 million visitors, which is necessary for the Omaha area to compete with cities like Des Moines and Kansas City, the typical select sports destinations over Omaha.
