The 6th Annual Jayo Invitational was held at Dockweiler Beach in Marina Del Ray, California.

 

The Goal of the Jayo Foundation is to encourage children to lead healthy active lifestyles through the sport of volleyball as well as supporting charitable organizations that work to aid children.  The proceeds for this year will be donated to the Foundation for the Advancement of Autistic Persons. 

A great event that benfits a wonderful cause.  For more information on the JAYO Foundation, visit
