Have Fun While Making a Difference!: Soccer for smiles tournament Feb 17-18, 2026

Have Fun While Making a Difference!
Our 2026 tournament is in the planning stages so save the dates in February!

February 17-18, 2026

Even though the tournament runs for two days, a player's commitment is just a few hours on one particular day. The day is split by age groups in 2- or 3-hour blocks of time (see schedule). It is great fun!

Mike, the rescue pig, was the 1st on the journey toward "More Farm Than Fancy" (audio)

FM #1635 = This is the Franklin Matters radio show, number 1639 in the series. 


This session shares my conversation with Lauren & Ryan Maloney. We had our discussion in the Franklin TV & Radio Studio on Thursday, January 18, 2026

 

Our conversation covers 

  • Their journey from a few pets to a farm with over 40 animal rescues 

  • To let them live a good life

  • The 'a ha' moment for “More Farm Than Fancy” 

  • The product line to help with funding the animals care


The recording runs about 36 minutes, so let’s listen in.
