How you can get Friendly's to donate part of your meal cost there to the local youth wrestling team.
Springfield's youth wrestling team invites everyone to pick up a voucher and enjoy a meal at the Friendly's Restaurant in the Springfield Shopping Plaza anytime during the week of September 23-29. Friendly's will donate 20% of your bill to the team, through the Springfield Parks & Rec Dept.
The team, coached by Don Beebe and Floyd Buck, consists of a dedicated handful of kids in grades 2-8, who are eager to test their mettle at state, regional, and national tournaments.
Several of the grapplers earned a place at the national competition last year, but no one had the money to travel to Ohio for the tournament. Monies raised through the Friendly's fundraising program will go toward registration and travel expenses for the Spring 2013 national youth wrestling tournament.
Vouchers are available at Springfield Parks & Rec offices at 139 Main St or from team manager Kelly Stettner. Call (802) 885-1533 or email k.stettner101@yahoo.com for a voucher today!

There's nobody in this town who supports kids athletics except some parents. Unfortunately this is a lost cause. My son wrestled about 4 years ago for Springfield through the parks and rec after a couple years of seeing the town not being behind kids the coach packed up and moved to Ludlow or Cavendish. He took some good kids with him, the rest stayed and eventually the good kids all left to other teams in the area.
ReplyDeleteI applaud what people are trying to do for kids, it is a shame that the towns folks don't see that they should support local kids so they have pride and a sense of accomplishment. As it is right now the town instill welfare and drug sales. It is a shame seeing kids go down the wrong path.
