Green Turtle fundraiser



My brother and his wife, work at the Greene Turtle Sports Bar and Grille in Columbia, MD. On their own initiative, they had the idea of putting together a fundraiser for our family and for Neuroblastoma research at the restaurant! It is going to be a fun time!

There will be a number of different things going that day. First, throughout the day, there will be a raffle going on. There are a number of really cools things that will be raffled off. You simply buy some raffle tickets (as many as you want) and stick them in the jar to possibly win the prize! The more tickets you put in, the greater your chances of winning! The prizes range: gift certificates, DC/Balt area sports team tickets, Terps gear, weekend getaways, Restaurant gift certificates, vacation packages, golf for a foursome at a local golf course, etc. If anyone would like to donate a prize to be raffled off, please let us know!

In addition to the money raised during the raffle, the owners of the Greene Turtle will VERY generously donate 10% of all the food and drink purchases to the overall pot of money collected! So, just coming in, hanging out, and having lunch or dinner as a family will support the cause! In addition, we'll be selling Neuroblastoma bracelets to raise awareness and money for research.



Our whole family will be there for as much of the day as possible. We are hoping to have Sarah there as well, depending on how she is doing with her chemo. Bring the whole fam and come hang out with us! So, mark your calendar for March 31st and join us at the Greene Turtle in Columbia, MD!
