After years of gaming and endless fun in the field, We decided it was time to give back to those who can't do it. Springfield is officially hosting Operation Make a Wish, where part of your entry fee will go directly to the foundation MAKE A WISH. The organization have been helping children with life-threatening medical conditions since 1980. You can read about the organization at www.wish.org

You do not have to bring anything extra or sign any papers of any kind, simply show up and have a little thought for these kids. If you wish to give extra monetary donation, you are more than welcome.

Otherwise, the event itself will be going the same way than usual so here are the details;
