Wiimbledon 2009 starts June 27th
Wiimbledon is a Wii Sports Tennis tournament charity with the goal of raising money for sick hospitalized kids. The Wiimbledon 2009 tournament event starts on June 27th. All the money earned from the event will be donated to Penny Arcade’s Child’s Play Charity.
They are hoping this year to raise enough money to give Child’s Play the largest single sum ever! To do this they’ve asked hundreds of tech companies to give them all manner of prizes which they will be auctioning off at the event. Including a huge sponsor who has yet to be revealed.
The event takes place in Brooklyn, New York at the Barcade and costs a petty $3.99 entrance fee if you want to play in the tournament (if you want to just watch, well that’s free). You will also be able to donate to the cause online at a later date.
If you want to have fun, drink beer, mingle, party and play some Wii Sports Tennis for a good cause, then this is the event for you. For more information make sure to follow the Wiimbledon 2009 Twitter.
Too bad I’m not in New York, cause this would be a really fun thing to attend!
