9/11 Day of Service

We would like to invite all league member to participate in the First Annual 9/11 Day of Service in the District. The concept is simple, to transform a day of sorrow into a day of service. The event is being organized by a great local non-profit, Greater DC Cares.

We are planning on doing a 2-4 hour project on Friday September 11th. The organization charges $25 to register, which goes to support their various charities, is tax deductible, and will earn you a free t-shirt. I will pick the specific project early next week, based on the number of registration we have at that time. The project will be inside the district.

Click here to register.



This is a fun & easy way to be a positive force in the community. I hope you will join us, and feel free to bring both bocce and non bocce friends too!

Update: We will be working on the following project:
