First Annual Charity Washer Toss Tournament...
We held our 2022 Washer Toss Charity Tournament on Saturday, September 10th, and it was a great success! We raised a total of $2020.00 for Lazarus House Homeless Shelter.
The event will featured a partners, single elimination (winners and losers brackets) tournament, using square washer boxes and rally scoring. We had a total of ten teams this year, with many of the matches going to three games. This year's first place team was a local father/son pair, who took home a first place prize basket that included custom first place tournament washer sets, custom ball caps and a variety of gift cards and smaller awards.
All proceeds from the tournament go to Lazarus House Homeless Shelter in St. Charles, IL. Since 1997, Lazarus House has been offering tools for life - food, safe shelter, education and hope – to folks in our Fox Valley communities who are homeless or in need. On average it costs about $145 a day to feed and shelter someone when they are down on their luck; we hope to raise enough to cover food and shelter for a week ($1,015).
Next Year's tournament is scheduled for Saturday, September 9, 2023, from 1:00pm until 5:00pm.
