2009 Alumni Lacrosse Tournament October 31st
Rain or shine, be here!
The goal of this tournament is provide Alumni, both players and fans of high school and college, an opportunity to
get back together, strap on the pads, play some lacrosse, catch up with some old friends
and raise some money for certain organizations that do great things for the community
and the greater good. This year we will be donating the proceeds to Genesee Valley
Outdoor Learning Center, a 501 (c)(3) non-profit who serves the community at large
throughout Maryland and other surrounding states. It's places like Genesee Valley that
help make our world a better place to live in. Another portion of the proceeds will go to
the Dick Edell Gift Trust. This is a fund set up to help "Big Man" afford some of the costs
associated with his illness, a form of Myositis. Big Man is an icon for the Maryland Lacrosse program and
those who know him or played for him know what an extrodinary person Coach Edell is.
Many thanks to all who have helped get this event off the ground! See you soon.
