Ohio

LPF opened its inaugural warehouse in Washington, DC in 2013. Since then, we have successfully replicated our model to Baltimore, MD in 2018, Philadelphia, PA in 2021, and now Columbus, OH in 2023! Our program has the opportunity to help local students experience a childhood full of positive youth sports memories and take advantage of the physical and mental benefits youth sports have to offer.
