Human Foosball Tourney Raises More Than $1,600

OGDENSBURG – The championship game in the inaugural Mosaic Human Foosball Tournament came down to penalty kicks with a team of all women from the Ansen Corporation taking home the top prize.

That team, Kung Foos donated $100 of their winnings back to the Society of the United Helpers. Second place went to the Killer Kickers with Foos Your Daddy? bringing home the third place prize. Foos Your Daddy also donated their winnings back to the Society.

“We had ten teams competing for more than $500 in cash prizes,” said Mosaic Administrator Michele M. Montroy. “It was a day full of action and fun with the money we raised going to the Society of the United Helpers.”

“This money will be used to enrich the lives of the people served by United Helpers,” Ms. Montroy said.

Included in the proceeds was a donation from the Ogdnebsurg Kiwanis Club, which donated the proceeds from its concession stand back to the Society in memory of Gary Skelly and Keith Robinson.

“The Ogdenbsurg Kiwanis Club graciously gave us use of their field at Montroy Park and even donated the proceeds from their concession stand back to United Helpers,” Ms. Montroy said. “Thank you to Larry Mitchell and the Kiwanis Club for this generous donation.”

Ms. Montroy said given the success of this event, talks are already underway for next year.

“Overall, the event raised more than $1,600 and there were many positive comments,” she said. “We look forward to doing this again next year.”
