big kev's beach tourney money raised
thursday january 08, 2009, by viru
Thank you all to those who played in Big Kev's Beach Tourney. We had 10 teams and about 80 players, including about 20 beginners. It was a great fun day of Ultimate at the beach.
In the end, we raised about $550 for The Sam Roberts Family Fund (http://www.cycle4sam.com) which raises money for Paediatric Palliative Care Services. A deserving and worth while charity.
Thank you all.
