ALL THE DETAILS OF THE LAND!

WHO CAN PLAY: Anyone that would like to play is invited! We would love to have our FHPCers play, but also encourage you to invite your family and friends for some friendly competition! The more, the merrier! Especially since this is our main fundraiser for our youth mission trip!  And for our students, you can earn money to go into your individual mission trip account if you have friends/family sign up and select your name in the registration process!

WHAT'S THE COST: Each bracket you want to set up is a suggested donation of $20- and you're welcome to set up more than one! And also, since this is a fundraiser for our high school students and their 2023 mission trip, any donations beyond the $20 cost will be given directly to our students (and will not be counted toward the prize money).

WHAT ARE THE PRIZES: The first place winner will receive 10% of the intake from players. The second place winner will receive 5% of the intake from players.  We will also draw a few random winners for gift cards just for participating! 

HOW DOES THIS WORK: You'll follow this registration link, fill out the interest form and pay your suggested $20 donation online or visit the table in the church lobby on March 5th or 12th and we can help get you registered. On the evening of March 12th, you will receive a link (via email) to the FHPC bracket site to go ahead and make your online bracket and submit it anytime before NOON on March 15th (this is a hard deadline, so make sure you get it in quickly!) 

WHAT ARE THE RULES: All rules and scoring will follow the guidance of our chosen website host. Website host yet to be determined.

I'M STILL CONFUSED: That's ok. So is Miss Ash. We know sports and March Madness don't come easily to everyone, so if you have ANY questions or need clarification, please don't hesitate to reach out to our Resident Bracketologist Extraordinaire, Kim Rossi, at kimrossigr@comcast.net
