We did it, Thank YOU!

Congratulations to the 30 teams and 500 people that came out to the 8th Annual Dodging Diabetes Charity Dodgeball Tournament on Sunday, March 10, 2013 to help us raise $20,000 for diabetes research.

That brings our 8 year total to more than $100,000!! The money we raised at this tournament will fund groundbreaking research at Joslin and JDRF to knock out diabetes for good.

Check out this year’s pictures here from our fabulous photographer Mary Kate McKenna.

Make sure to follow our Facebook Page and Twitter feed for more info about next year’s tournament. And we’d love if you could fill out our survey too.

We’re proud to be the first sustainable dodgeball tournament and are looking forward to seeing whether we have earned our gold certification for being even more green this year. We’re proud that 91% of the waste from this year’s event was composted (thanks to The Compost Crew!) or recycled. Our green page has the full deets and check back in a few weeks for an update on our certification.

See you next March! And as always, don’t forget the 5 Ds of Dodgeball:

  • Dodge
  • Dip
  • Dive
  • Duck
  • And Dodge!!!
