A Joust, Two Charities, and Countless Quenching

On our final Thirsty Thursday of the summer, Atlantic BT held an American Gladiators-style Joust tournament and a cornhole long toss competition to finish our fundraising for The Molly Ann Gries Foundation and the GoFundMe site for Kendall King’s son, Lincoln.

“What can I say? It’s almost like being bigger and stronger than everyone is an advantage in hitting people with a huge foam club.” Nick said.

For the long toss competition, few were surprised to watch familiar champion Andrew Bartlett throw the winning sack to win $100.

“I’m just glad we raised all that money for the kids. Really great that Atlantic BT did all this to help two awesome charities. Plus, I got a hundred bucks. Championship!” Bartlett said.

The real champions were the charities. Over the summer, Atlantic BT raised more than $3150 for for The Molly Ann Gries Foundation and the GoFundMe site for Kendall King’s son, Lincoln.
