Golf Tournament a Great Success!!!

The 2005 Riley's Warriors Golf Classic on April 18th was a great success! The weather was near-perfect, the turnout fantastic, the whole affair tremendous. We had 108 golfers in 27 teams participate. The team of Jordan Skelton, Terry Bryant, Scott Simmons and Cody Bryant (aka “Jordan and His Team of Ringers”) won the event with a score of 17-under par. You can find all of the specifics under the Golf Tournament link to the left. We'll be posting photographs of the teams in the very near future.

Arkansas RimRockers Fundraiser Raises $2900!

Man, what a night! Riley's Warriors was the "Charity of the Game" for the Arkansas RimRockers Semifinal Playoff Game on Friday, March 18th. Approximately 150 friends and co-workers joined us for the game and watched the RimRockers advance to the Finals.

Just after half-time, our friend Cary Martin served as spokesman for the organization and told the crowd a little about Riley's Warriors. After he finished, the RimRockettes passed through the crowd with buckets, collecting donations.

The generosity of the crowd was absolutely overwhelming and we collected over $2900 in donations. The RimRockettes told us that they had never seen anything like it and that people were literally throwing money at them.

These funds help move us closer to our goal of a special needs school program. Thanks to all who came out to the game and made it possible!

One Gold, Two Silver and Four Bronze!!!

With the addition of Document Imaging Solutions as a Bronze Sponsor on Friday, we have filled out the top-level sponsorships for the Riley's Warriors 2005 Golf Classic. When we started this process, we had no idea that we could attract ANY major sponsors, much less fill out the field. I am awed and humbled by the generosity of so many. With their help, and the help of many, many other sponsors, we have raised over $23,000 in sponsorships.

I'd like to express our thanks to our top-level sponsors (and 2005 Corporate Partners) once again:

(more sponsors...)

We have a limited number of Flight Prize and Tee Box Sponsorships remaining, at $1,000 and $250 each, respectively. If you can help or know of someone who might be able to, please contact us and let us know!

And, don't forget the Respite Care event next Saturday, March 5th.
