They dodged and made a difference

Hello everyone...well I'm back from fundraiser planning:)  Our 5th year of Dodgeball was our best year yet. We had 16 teams in the 5th/6th group, 5 in the jr high group and 10 in the adult division. We had to split the court and play 2 games at once for that first group so that it didn't take all day:)

Thank you to all of the businesses who donated-Lambers, Express Care Valvoline, Taco Bell, Rib Crib, Sonic, Shoneys, Yogurtini, Family Video, Godfathers, Dominoes, Papa Johns, Caseys, Barnett-Davis Dental, Ozark Therapy Institute, Mandy Evans Photography, Stacey's Sweets, Primas Mexican Grill, Chesterfield Family Center, Famous Daves, Image Pro Group (tshirts), We could not do this without all of the generous people and businesses!

I would also like to thank my family and friends who volunteer every year to help make this successful. You are all amazing! Thanks to the parents and players who got your kids to the tournament, sponsored teams, purchased shirts and cheered everyone on.
















It's really not about who wins but the fact that you are having fun and making a difference in one boy's life..our sweet Christian. We raised what we had hoped to raise to take Christian to physical therapy at the Kenny Rogers Child Center in Sikeston, MO. He will work in a 3 week, 3 hrs a day physical therapy program. The intensitity of it is what makes it so successful in helping Christian make more progress in his walking and standing. We were also raising money for speech therapy. Our insurance does not pay for speech therapy.
