SPC Mission Supporters, it’s time for March Mission Madness again! What is it? A chance to boost the giving for your favorite SPC Mission! What it isn’t? A chance to win money. How will we do it? We’ll use the upcoming NCAA Men’s Basketball Tournament to tap into your competitive, philanthropic, fun-loving nature. How much will it cost? The entry is a minimum $15 donation per tournament bracket, but there’s nothing saying that you can’t donate more or create multiple tournament brackets at $15 each. What do I win? You win bragging rights and the privilege of determining which SPC Mission will receive the proceeds from the pool of money donated. The individuals with the four highest point totals will each determine which Mission will get their share of the pool. The overall winner gets unfettered bragging rights. Who can participate? It’s not gambling, so anyone of any age can join in. Friends and extended family are welcome too. The more the merrier. I’m in! What do I do? To prepare, you should follow the directions from one of the two attachments to this email *find these attachments in the Southminster facebook group*: 1) If you’ve already participated in previous years, then you already have an ESPN account and can use the attachment “SPC MMM Signup Renew.” 2) If you’ve never participated, then you first need to establish an ESPN account before you can create a bracket. In this case please use the attachment titled “SPC MMM Signup Newbie.” If you have trouble, just come into church on Sunday, and Jim Messmore will have a computer available to help you sign up. If you have a login already, be sure to bring that information with you! If you have questions, you can also contact Jim at [email protected]. Act now – you must register and complete your bracket(s) by March 15! AND DON’T FORGET THAT DAYLIGHT SAVING TIME BEGINS THIS WEEKEND. “SPRING AHEAD!”
