Softball Tournament hosted by Dawn's Ray of Hope to benefit Love Holds Life Children's Cancer Foundation.
Throughout her life, Dawn Re was always game for any kind of endurance challenge to raise money for the fight against cancer. Whether it was riding a bike 111 miles in Tucson, playing softball in the snow or staying up all night walking in circles around the track, she always attacked each event with a smile and the thought “How can I make this fun?” That was the inspiration behind “Dusk to Dawn,” an all-night softball marathon and barbecue.
Teams participating in the tournament will be assigned a game slot to compete against "Dawn's team." (Yes, Dawn's team will play all night!) The team that scores the most runs in a win against Dawn's team will win the tourney! It's that simple.
The event is scheduled to run from 5:00pm on Friday September 7th until 8:00am on Saturday morning September 8th. 15 hours of Coed softball -- playing with wood bats and the 16” Chicago style softball.
We will be playing at the New Castle Recreation Field, 200 South Greeley Avenue, Chappaqua, New York.
The donation to enter your team is $900. (However, for game slots starting after 10:01pm on Friday night (through Saturday morning), the donation to enter your team is only $750.) There are only 15 spots available; registration is on a first come, first served basis. Each game will have a strict 1 hour time limit.
Players must be at least 17 years old to participate in this event.
To register your team, please send a check made payable to "Dawn's Ray of Hope" along with your team registration form (see link to the right) and roster to:
