Successful Charity with the Austin Armadillos

On February 28th the Austin Armadillos hosted a charity event for the children society of cancer. The event took place in one of the event rooms inside the stadium. The goal was to raise approximately $1.5 million dollars in order to help children diagnosed with cancer. It was a private event, and it was an honor to have former President George W. Bush and his family as our guests of honor. In addition to the former president, we had other guests like Jessica Simpson, Lance Armstrong, and Sandra Bullock. During the event, we had several entertaining comedians and band players as well. The event was a success; most of the players attended and we were able to raise a little bit more than our goal. Hopefully this will help the children society of cancer and fight the disease.
