Subject: 2nd Annual Book Dive Ultimate Tournament Sunday December 4th


Hello folks -

It's that time again

Time to gather some more children's books for those in need. We
started this last year and gathered 200+ books (plus some $) that were
given to two area charities - I think we can do more this year. Please
scour your book shelves, rally your teammates, and bring the whole lot
down to the Mall for a day of chasing plastic for a good cause.

Holiday Book Dive Ultimate Tournament
Entry Fee: BOOKS, for kids and young adults learning to read,
preferably new but good condition used will be accepted (checks and
$$$ also accepted for both Angel Fund and the Arlington literacy
program we give to - just ask for details) We may ask for a little $
to defray costs also, so bring fiver$ just in case

Prize for the team that brings the most books (and maybe something for
people who win games too)

Format TBD, but it will be one day and depending on the number of
teams we may have to get funky

Location: Mall fields, next to the reflecting pool (that's in DC for
you out of towners, see wafc.org for field locations)

Start time: EARLY - hey, don't blame me, blame those crazy Daylight
Savings time people

We want at least 8 teams, but more can be accommodated so please rally
your troops.

Individual players please let me know as I am sure there will be
people looking for players and also a pickup team forming

Will GW stay strong? Will another college program rise up on them?
Will the club players be able to keep up with the kids? How about some
High Schoolers, are they 'busy with exams' too? Most importantly, will
there be enough hot chili and cider?

Contact:
bookdive@... (please, just want to compartmentalize this once)

Volunteers: if you want to help, let me know, but get your team
together first!!!

peace and love

jim siewert

PS: anyone with access to wafc list serve, please send this out to
that. I will try to do DC pickup myself
