Recently I posted a messege asking other teams/leagues
to consider sponsoring benefit tournaments to aid their
local food banks. As everyone knows the Houston area
was recently hit hard by hurricane IKE, as a result the
local food bank shelves had been depleted. As it was
we had already planed a benefit tournament for The
Houston Food Bank this past weekend. IT WAS a great
sucess!!!! We sent over 2000 lbs. of food and $1500.
in cash to help those in need. In addition to the 12
teams involved in the tournament, we played a game
against a celebrity team of ex-NBA players and local
celebs. In addition a game was played against men
from the local Open Door Mission, what a great time
these men had. Seniors vs. Hunger could become a nation
wide effort supported by the great group that we all
represent. Think about it guys!
