Event
Summer 2012
Get your game on—
and do some good
For the last four years, thousands of gamers have joined together annually to play
for 24 hours for Extra Life—a gaming marathon in support of Children’s Miracle
Network (CMN) Hospitals.
Gamers rally friends and family members to sponsor their play. The funds they
raise go to help save and improve the lives of kids at the CMN Hospital in their
community. We’d like you to join our lifesaving fight.
When:
Oct. 20, 8 a.m. (or choose a
date that works for your schedule)
Where:
Anywhere you like to game
(Most people play from home!)
Game/platform:
Play any games
on any platforms you want, including
mobile devices!
How it works:
Simply ask your
friends and family to sponsor your ef-
forts. They can make a monthly pledge
or a one-time gift. Then have a seat and
play games on Oct. 20.
Who it benefits:
Children’s Miracle
Network. Simply choose Shannon Medi-
cal Center as your hospital.
