Laser tag players from across six states participated in Tag 4 A Cause this past weekend, helping to raise over $1100 to benefit the Epilepsy Foundation. I am so proud of our laser tag community!
This was included as a side event during the September Laser Storm regional draft tournament held at Skyway Laser Storm in Warren, Ohio. Big props to Thomas Provitt for organizing the tournament with owner George Raptis and my thanks to them both for allowing Tag 4 A Cause to happen concurrently.
I set up a table (prominently/conspicuously right underneath the scoreboard) the night before during the practice games and skills session.
Almost immediately I had players asking questions and scanning the QR code. The tournament players were invited to donate directly to the Epilepsy Foundation and in thanks they received a medal and the chance to compete in special games for the “Top Gun” golden phaser trophy.
All throughout the next morning donations were being made to the cause and at the mid-point of the tournament we did three breakaway games. The first two were qualifiers, from which the top ten “Top Gun” scoring players advanced to the Tag 4 A Cause finals. Congratulations to these top ten players.
At the end of the Tag 4 A Cause finals (which took place just prior to the tournament finals), we had a winner! Congratulations to Corbin “Debug” Raptis who won the “Top Gun” golden phaser award with his high score of 67!
When laser tag players participate in tournaments there is a strong sense of community. In fact, selecting this cause to be the recipient was the direct result of being suggested by a laser tag player who is part of our community. Supporting a great cause like the Epilepsy Foundation is something we can all get behind while at the same time enjoying the laser tag that brings us together as a group. We definitely saw that happen at this event and I want to thank all the generous supporters who helped us raise $1146 in total for the Epilepsy Foundation.
Sincere thanks to everyone who participated in Tag 4 A Cause. Thank you also to Amusement Today for sharing this article in today’s desktop edition!
