We did it!! Four the fourth straight year we've crushed the total of the previous year, practically doubling last year's record total! The 2010 The Dude Hates Cancer -- held on August 28th at North Bowl and Johnny Brenda's -- raised over $54,000 for The Leukemia & Lymphoma Society. (It may be a couple of months before we have an official final tally.)
There are many people to thank for the success of this year's event. First and foremost, thank you to our unbelievable organizing committee who generously volunteered their time and talents to the cause. We also had 25 teams participate this year -- a new record! Thank you to those individuals, and to everyone who donated to their fundraising efforts. Thanks to the many businesses that supported us this year, including our presenting sponsor, North Bowl, and our bronze sponsors, AFLAC and Fragomen, Del Rey, Bernsen & Loewy, LLP. Finally, thanks to the amazing bands that rocked our after-party free of charge.
The reigning champions, We Roll on Shabbos, once again emerged victorious with an incredible two-game score of 1723. Finishing second was Team Dumigan with a score of 1643 and The Dawson Street Pub All-Stars took third place with a score of 1587.
More importantly, Welcome to Strikesville took home top honors in our fundraising competition, raising an incredible $7,165 and taking home The Big Booze Prize! They were led by the tournament's top individual fundraiser, Paul Sticklin, who raised over $3,200 and took home the 32" flat-screen TV. Finishing just $99 behind them with an equally impressive effort was We Roll on Shabbos, who raised $7,066. The High Rollers also raised lots for the cause, bringing in $3,292 for the LLS and coming in third.
And so another successful campaign is behind us. It's been fun!
The Dude abides.
