As part of Hopkins' Raspberry Festival, ResourceWest is hosting a Charity Kickball Tournament. The organization has outlined the details as follows;
- Teams of 6 or more
- "Scholarships" can be provided if the entry fee is too high for a team
- All ages are invited to sign up, as there will be a competitive and non-competitive (for kids) brackets
- Teams do NOT have to be co-ed
- The winning team will receive a prize package
ResourceWest's goal is to raise between $8,000 to $15,000 from this event, in which 90% of the proceeds will directly benefit the organization's programs; including Project Starfish, Back-to-School, Winter Warm Wear, Toy Chest, Information & Referral, and the Computer Technology Center. The remaining 10% will be given to the Raspberry Festival.
Volunteers are also needed for the day of the event. If people are interested in being referees, field managers, check in desk, or water sellers, they can contact ResourceWest at (952) 988-5350.
