THE TIME HAS COME!!!

Saunders Secondary school's cancer campaign is right around the corner and students and teachers are coming up with ideas on how we are going to raise some cash for cancer research.
Last year in April, Saunders hosted a private smash tournament for the students to attend at a cost of $2. The amount raised was $180.00 and the prize, a $25 gift card to E.B. Games (Game Stop).
Since it was the first time Saunders had hosted a tournament, it was a tad sloppy and unorganized.

This year, we want to do things differently.
This year, we want to open up to the public so players outside of the school can attend and raise more money.
Although, there are a few issues that need taking care of.

-Problem 1~
This is the first large public tournament that we have hosted. Meaning that we would need the help of the smash community to organize this event with as little errors as possible. Those of you who have organized or helped organize a large tournament before, are encouraged to give input and ideas.

-Problem 2~
We still need the permission from the Thames Valley District School Board to host the tournament at the school outside of school hours.
-Problem 3~
We would need to come up with a plan for the prize for winning the tournament. The fact that the purpose of this tournament is for raising money to help fight cancer, we need to know what the entry fee would need to be and where to use the money. eg; paying for custodial service, management, and of course, the amount raised. It would really help if we could have volunteers to help manage. Especially, since students who require volunteer hours would be able to get credit for doing this.


the time of this tournament is not set in stone until we can get all of those problems solved


-We were also hoping to get one or two streams going to increase the hype.

If this tournament is very successful, there is a big chance that it will happen again next year or even sooner for some of our smaller fundraisers.



Contact me with any ideas and input you have to make this happen!!
