Royals Make A Wish Come True

Our event, a fundraiser to grant the wish of a Make a Wish participant named Luke, was a resounding success all around. The idea was initiated by two of our players, Kyle Jadatz and Lenny Schwartz, and quickly became a total team effort. Our goal was to raise the $7,000 needed to grant Luke’s wish to go to Disney World through dedicating a home game to Luke and his family, with the hopes of spreading awareness to his cause. Through online fundraising, 50/50 raffles, Chuck a Duck and the generosity of strangers we were able to help raise enough to grant Luke’s wish as well as contribute over $2,500 towards another wish!

Kyle & Lenny spearheaded this, however we had 20 players chipping in. It was great work by everyone involved and a fantastic cause to be a part of.
