Slots remain for Crime Stoppers homerun derbies

Posted on Jan 02 2005
While the team slots for the 3rd Annual NMI Crime Stoppers Slow Pitch Softball Tournament are all but squared away, plenty of openings remain for the annual homerun derbies.
All of the fun of tournaments past will be returning, as there will be two homerun derbies— one for celebrities, on Saturday, Jan. 8, 12pm , and one for the players, on Sunday, Jan. 9, at 12pm.
Though organizers have yet to release a list of the high-profile guests, chances are good that many of the stars from last year’s show will be returning to vie for the recently doubled $100 prize.
Derby entrants will get more than a shot at the softball for their registration fee, as the organizers have put together a treasure trove of exciting and valuable raffle prizes, and all entrants of the Home Run Derby will receive 20 tickets for raffle drawing.
It only takes one ticket to win the raffle, and tickets will be on sale during the games throughout the tournament for one dollar each. Somebody’s lucky mini-portrait of George Washington will win this year’s grand prize—a pair of roundtrip tickets to Cairns, Australia courtesy of Continental Airlines. Continental also put up the award for the winner of the mini grand prize raffle—one roundtrip ticket to Manila.
To enter the event, simply stop down to Car Quest in Chalan Kanoa and fill out the entry and waiver forms, and pay the entry fee. The cost to enter a team in the annual homerun derby is $20 per individual, and all checks should be made out to NMI Crime Stoppers.
