The following message is a Public Service Announcement from Elizabethtown DeMolay inviting you to the annual Dodgeball for Dyslexia Tournament.
Look at that - what a shiny new
logo! Dodgeball for Dyslexia is new, improved, and better than ever in its
third year of existence, just like its logo. Now, you may ask, “Hey, how can a charity dodge-ball tournament that raised nearly $1,000 last year alone get even
better?” which is a very keen and
flattering question. The answer is easy: it starts with you. We had a total
of 7 teams last year, with strong showings from Westmoreland and Pilgrim, but
in order for the level of awesomeness to reach maximum capacity, we need
more teams. So, if you are not completely convinced of joining
this incredible event, let me suggest three solid reasons of why you should
participate in Dodgeball for Dyslexia III.
1.)
It is for an awesome cause
Would you
like to reap the benefits of donating to a charitable organization and feeling
connected to your fellow members of the human race? Then this tournament is for
you. All profits from Dodgeball for Dyslexia are given to the Children’s
Dyslexia Centers, which provides tutoring at no charge to children from early
elementary through high school who have been diagnosed as dyslexic. Children
are eligible regardless of economic status or Masonic affiliation. The positive
impact of early intervention on the lives of these children and their families
is enormous and inspires our commitment to this program.
2.)
Dodgeball is fun
Dodgeball
is a sport. Sports are games. Games are fun. With this undeniable logic, it is
safe to assume that you will have the time of your life at Dodgeball for
Dyslexia. Whether you are experiencing the thrill of joining comrades in the
exertion of physical activity or you simply enjoy hitting your advisors with
soft, rubber spheres, this activity is always a boatload of fun. Not just a
small dinghy of fun, but a Titanic size boat of fun sans the sinking.
3.)
You can win stuff
If the
emotional satisfaction of benefiting humanity and enjoying time with friends
and brothers isn’t your cup of tea, you can also win the long sought-after
gold, silver, and bronze dodgeballs. The gold, of course, goes to the victor of
the entire tournament, but just as important is the silver dodgeball, which
goes to the team with the most team spirit, and bronze, which is given to the
team who raised the most money to the Dyslexia Centers. So, seek victory and
claim a few dodge-balls for your home chapter!
As I
promised, three solid reasons to participate in the Dodgeball for Dyslexia
tournament on May 13, 2017 at the Spooky Nook Sports Complex in Manheim, PA. If
you have any inquiries, feel free to contact Brother Evan Crawford at evane2@ptd.net.
Make a team: make a
difference.
