Take JDS Out to the Ballgame: A Night of Inclusion and Joy
What do you get when you combine America’s favorite pastime with community celebration? A night to remember. ⚾ On All Abilities Night at Storm Stadium, JDS Creative Academy showed up in full spirit—not just as spectators, but as champions of inclusion, creativity, and community.
🌟 More Than Just a Game
All Abilities Night isn’t your average ballgame. It’s a heartfelt celebration that reminds us of the power of accessibility and belonging. Hosted by the Lake Elsinore Storm, this special evening creates space for individuals of all abilities to shine, participate, and be seen.
At JDS Creative Academy, inclusion is at the heart of everything we do. That’s why this night was so meaningful. Watching the crowd cheer as participants took the field or heard their names announced—it wasn’t just exciting, it was affirming. Everyone deserves that moment of recognition and joy.
🎬 Where Community Meets Creativity
Our team had the chance to document moments from the night, capturing not just the game, but the joy it sparked in our students, staff, and families. These shared experiences are what fuel our mission—to use the arts as a vehicle for connection and growth.
From video editing to live reporting, many of our participants in JDS’s job training and visual arts programs used this event as a real-world learning lab. It’s one thing to teach in a classroom—but to experience inclusion in action? That’s where the real impact happens.

💡 Why Nights Like These Matter
Studies show community enrichment events like these are on the rise—participation is expected to grow by 20% by 2026. (Grand View Research, 2024) And for good reason. They strengthen social bonds, inspire new conversations, and give everyone a front-row seat to the power of unity.
🎤 Thank You, Storm Stadium
We’re incredibly grateful to the Lake Elsinore Storm for creating this opportunity. All Abilities Night isn’t just a title—it’s a commitment. And it’s one we proudly stand behind.

The arts are for everyone. Inclusion isn’t an add-on—it’s the heart of the experience.
