This year more children will be diagnosed with autism than with AIDS, diabetes and cancer combined. We are pleased to announce our 1st Annual “Pinning Down Autism” Wrestling Tournament & Family Fun Fair.
This will be an open folkstyle tournament with divisions including K-12th grades and also an open/college division. We have teamed up with Trinity Services Autism & Family Resource Center in New Lenox and Easter Seals - Pediatric Center in Joliet for this great cause. Lee Kemp will be opening up our ceremonies with a motivational speech to fire everyone up before they step on the mat.
Northwestern’s very own Brandon Precin will run a free clinic for all registered wrestlers at 6:oo pm following 4-6pm weigh-in’s on Saturday, July 9th. We will also have weigh-ins Sunday from 7-8:30am.
We are also having a family fun fair on the opposite field including bounce houses, face painting, Coolbeanz the clown, Reptile Rampage's animals, games and entertainment for the kids and great vendors* for mom & dad. Bring out the whole family to support a great cause!
Tricky Tray Basket Raffles/Silent Auctions & more..
Custom Medals 1st-4th Place. Also we will be giving out a team award and individual awards for most money raised.
JUST ADDED - A MOM'S WRESTLING CHALLENGE. Mom vs. Mom stepping on the mat showing the moves they've learned over the years of watching! Scott Casper & Take Down Radio will be there to record this event live!
