Pay it Forward and Play It Again Sports

In collaboration with students at Greensboro Day School, Sports Dreams will be the recipient of funds generated by a sports equipment drive. We are being encouraged to bring our used sports equipment to Play it Again Sports on Battleground in Greensboro. As part of a "Pay it Forward" effort, the students are able to design a project to assist those in need. If you have an item that is too large to transport, call Mike Kemp at 282-9910 and he will arrange for pick-up. This is an ongoing program that begins immediately. Take stock of what is in your attic, garage and basement. It may be time to clean house and pass those items on to others. Please mention that it is for Sports Dreams! And Thanks!

Steve Grimm's Ride to the Coast

When: September 28th, 2007

Who: Steve Grimm, local businessman and active amateur cyclist.

What: Riding from here to the coast, by himself, in under 13 hours.

Why: He periodically likes to challenge himself with endurance rides in and around the state. He first completed a ride in 1999 with a group of cyclists. In 2002 he completed the ride in 14 hours and in 2004 13 hours (with a partner).

Benefits: In the past, Steve has raised money for both Make a Wish Foundation and The Victory Junction Gang. Steve has been generous enough to allow Sports Dreams to be involved and try to raise money and awareness for our program with his ride.
