Thanks to all of the teams for their flexibility
this year! A cold front brought lots of
rain postponing the event, originally scheduled
for Saturday, February 4th. On Sunday, February
12th, it was extremely cold, but the teams
stayed warm in their competitive spirit
and played on...
ABOUT THE CHARITY:
The Harry Chapin Food Bank solicits, collects
and store quality food for distribution
to needy people through a network of nearly
170 local non-profit agencies in Lee, Collier,
Hendry, Charlotte and Glades counties.
The Food Bank system allows agencies to
provide their clients with a more balanced
diet than if they to rely solely on donations
while reducing waste and assuring an equitable
distribution of food resources throughout
Southwest Florida.
96% of every dollar received goes to their
feeding program with less than 4% to management
and fundraising. For every dollar donated,
$10 in food value goes back to the community.
