2 WEEKS AWAY – TIME TO REGISTER:

A unique combination and something for everyone:

Golf on a beautiful course.  

A creative Tennis event  

Dodgeball/Funball Tournament

Dinner & Auction

Tuesday August 12th, 2014

Take advantage of the FAMILY BARGAIN.  Evan’s Team is about the community and never about breaking the bank.  Any paying golfer can add a family member for tennis, dodgeball or dinner (with open bar) for $25 per family member. Tennis players can add dodgeball and dinner guests for $25 as well.

Last years Dodgeball was a huge success. Bruce Murray from SiriusXM NFL Radio is again doing the play-by-play.  An important barrier was broken last year when some geriatrics not only competed, but they were formidable.  The prediction is several more gray-haired teams will be wreaking havoc this year.  We are expecting another lively tournament and are providing betting lines for the spectators to win some very cool prizes while appetizers and cocktails are being served.

Register today for your activity!!!

We look forward to seeing everyone –

What is Evan’s Team?
Evan’s team is a group effort committed to helping the community. There are times we need to raise awareness or times we need to raise funds. But either way, we all enjoy working together and making something good happen.

Our team continues to challenge ourselves with events that are fun in participation, but also very relevant in accomplishing ambitious goals.

Our first project is aimed at helping trauma patients and families at the Westchester Medical Center by aiding in a much needed remodeling of the family area. On a daily basis, helicopters efficiently medevac patients from all over New York State for what will inevitably be an extended stay for that patient. Effectively treating a trauma victim also includes aid to family members who have been surprised by a loved-one’s injury and need to be educated on life-sustaining decisions. However, the current waiting-area leaves a lot of room for improvement as the family members are hunkering in for a long stay as well. Our idea is to create a block of rooms where those families can rest comfortably when possible and doctors can consult privately.
