“Be More Like Byrd” is built on the legacy of Jason “Ja Byrd” Peters, a one-of-a-kind presence whose larger-than-life personality, heart of gold, and unwavering love for his family and friends left a lasting impression on everyone he met. Ja was a devoted husband to Amy and a proud father to Odin and Birdie, radiating joy whenever he spoke about them. He was the friend who showed up without hesitation, pushed you to be better, brought people together from every background, and stood firmly in your corner. His humor, wit, fearlessness, and authenticity made him unforgettable. Byrd was a true original whose spirit continues to inspire. At the heart of our mission is a commitment to honor Ja by fostering community support and resilience. Through the annual Bike & Board Fundraiser, we unite individuals who share a passion for giving back, ensuring that Ja’s legacy lives on by uplifting families in need. Every contribution, whether through participation or donation, strengthens our community, supports Ja’s beloved family, and helps us build a brighter future for those affected by tragedy. Together, we can embody the spirit of ‘Be More Like Byrd’ and make a lasting, meaningful impact.
