Players Players Players!

Dear friends...

Sorry it's been so long since I posted an update! Things are ROCKING and ROLLING with the Drive For 25! We've been so blessed and I'm stoked to see how things are coming along... but we still need players!

We haven't made clear exactly who can/can't play, but we want to remind everyone that LADIES are encouraged to raise support and play, as well! For those who might be unsure about playing with the guys, we'll be setting aside a specific time for the ladies to play against each other. So please, if you're interested, send us an e-mail at thedrivefor25@gmail.com!

Send an e-mail ASAP and we'll get your name down! We still have quite a few to fill, so tell your friends, but they are also filling up fast!

That is all for now. Have a wonderful rest of your week!

Players!

Hey friends! Luke Sjogren checking in...

We have had SUCH an exciting week in planning for The Drive For 25! JMU Men's Basketball Coach Matt Brady is the MAN and has helped to hook us up with some SWEET prizes for those players who raise the most money, including: JMU Men's Basketball Apparel, being taken out to lunch by Coach Brady and Coach Brooks, and tickets to a Wizards game! But remember- in order to win these prizes, you need to play and RAISE MONEY!

Right now our greatest concern is getting players. We're looking for at least 50 ball players who can commit to being here in Harrisonburg for 10 hours between 4 pm Friday April 16 and 5 pm Saturday April 17. Each player needs to commit to not only being able to play for that long (they will be subbing in and out over that period) but also to commit to raising $250 in sponsorships. Yes- we're college students and that is a lot of money, but it IS possible! Watch the video below!

And don't be afraid to ask anyone and everyone- people love to give! I have talked with a few people already and they are excited... It's for a fantastic cause, and 100% of the money goes to the kids...

Are you interested in playing? Please send us an e-mail at thedrivefor25@gmail.com and we'll get you rolling on support-raising!

I hope you all are getting as excited as I am! Remember- it's going to take more than one day to change the world...
