Sand volleyball has been around for a very long time, but until it became an Olympic sport, there was little hype and it wasn't a household word. Today, sand volleyball is enjoyed by countless people across the country as an excellent form of exercise as well as a great way to gather friends, family, and colleagues together.
This time, the gathering is for a great cause - October 2, and 3 - Lighthouse Fitness 3333 W. Hefner Road.
Jesus House in Oklahoma City is one of those unique facilities where needs are met, comfort is given, and love is handed out freely - without making the participants "dance for their dinner." Jesus House meets the needs of people who are hungry, homeless, addicted, and even those dealing with mental illness. In the 1980s, public mental institutions were virtually shut down and forced to release patients because there was no longer a place for them. While it may have save the government a few pennies, it costs our culture a whole lot more by having some folks out on the street who should be under the care of a mental health professional.
What in the heck does any of that have to do with Signal 8 Band? Well, we are honored and blessed to be on the scene Friday, October 2nd at 7pm or so to entertain, to play some music, and support a very worthy cause and of course, check out some fun volleyball. This is kid-friendly environment, our drummer is a professional magician as well and will be having a few surprises in store for the kids! We've already had people asking us if it is a tournament for homeless.
No.
Teams are set up to participate and if you want to get a 4-person team together, simply hit the Jesus House website and let them know. MORE INFORMATION HERE.
Y'all need to come. We promise it will be a wonderful event!
