About this Event
Kings and Queens of 813: Safe Summer Series 2026 Finale
Join Safe & Sound Hillsborough and community partners on Saturday, November 21, 2026, from 10 AM to 2 PM at King High School for Kings and Queens of 813, a free community event bringing together youth, families, and local leaders.
We're closing out the Safe Summer Series by recognizing the young people who participated in our Social Media Challenge, along with our community mini-grant recipients who helped bring youth violence prevention, education, and community engagement initiatives to neighborhoods throughout Hillsborough County.
The day will also feature a 1-on-1 football tournament with a $200 top cash prize in both boys and girls divisions, a live DJ, arts and crafts, a junk sock competition, and activities for the whole family.
Beyond the celebration, we're creating space for two important conversations.
"And How Are the Children?" will give parents and guardians an opportunity to check in on their child's academic progress, better understand graduation requirements, and connect with school representatives about resources available to support their success.
"Where Do We Go From Here?" will bring elected officials, community leaders, and residents together for an open discussion about education, youth development, and issues affecting our community. Find out more about Amendment 3 and what it means for you, your family and community. Dive into the discussion regarding the school district and other matters. Be part of the discussion and bring your questions and solutions!
We'll also recognize individuals making a difference through our Youth and Community Champions Awards Program.
