2011 Recap
2011 was another great tournament! The weather was a bit chilly, but that didn't stop the hundreds of young female lacrosse players, coaches, parents, officials, and volunteers from playing lacrosse and raising over $19,000 for the Wounded Warrior Project. That brings our 4 year total contributions to the WWP of over $60,000! As long as there are U.S. troops in harm's way oversees, we will continiue to show our support by rasing funds to help our wounded warriors when they come home!
