Hiya!
I've been the organizer of a charity Blood Bowl tournament in Harrisburg,
PA for the last 8 years. We are always looking for new games to add to our event, and over the past year the local gaming group has been playing a LOT of X-Wing so it seemed like a natural fit!
Our tournament benefits The Four Diamonds Fund, a pediatric cancer charity:

As we have always done, ALL money collected will be donated directly to The Four Diamonds Fund.
We have a long tradition of great raffle prizes; for X-Wing we are working on:
• Custom painted Firespray
• 'Stealth' Phantom
• Converted center cockpit YT-1300
• Custom painted B-Wing squadron
Our snazzy new website is (mostly) up:

And you can see pictures of previous events on our Facebook page:

So mark your calendars, craft your most awesome squad, and join us for a great day of games, food, and raffles!
If you have any questions about the tournament, or the 4 Diamonds Fund, please let me know.

About the 4 Diamonds Fund:
The 4 Diamonds is a wonderful charity that supports children undergoing cancer treatment and their families. I was touched by this incredible organization when my own daughter was diagnosed with a brain tumor, the support and compassion they showed gave us more comfort than I think they will ever know.
Though my daughter did not survive her fight, every day 4 Diamonds supports research into new treatments, assists families with financial needs, provides invaluable emotional support, and helps in many other ways.
Raising money for the 4 Diamonds has been an incredibly rewarding experience, and I am hoping you’d like to be a part of it.
