Welcome to the 12th Annual Paul Blank Invitational
Thanksgiving Day is approaching faster than a helium balloon flown by a six-year old boy, and that means its time for one of America’s most time-honored traditions -Thanksgiving football. This November marks the 12th anniversary of the annual gridiron classic known as the Paul Blank Invitational (PBI).
Organized in 1998 by Paul Blank, the Patron Saint of Thanksgiving Football and a direct descendant of Squanto, the PBI football game has been the main course on Thanksgiving for alumni of the Jewish Day School. For the past eleven years, in the crisp, late-autumn air on the fourth Thursday of November, former classmates have gathered as players and spectators to share in the emotion that is turkey day football.
Carrying on this tradition of community, camaraderie, and competition we hope you will join us on November 26, 2009, for the 12th annual Paul Blank Invitational Thanksgiving Football Game in Memory of Aron Sobel. Proceeds from the game go to our good friends at The Association for Safe International Road Travel (ASIRT) and other local charities.
In addition to exciting football, this year's contest will feature refreshments, celebrity performance of the National Anthem, opening ceremonies, special halftime guest, corporate sponsorships, and new mommy Jackie Ochs. Advanced registration and a donation are required for players.
More details coming soon. Check back regularly, and in the mean time, why not grab some window treatments
The Paul Blank Invitational is accepting donations on behalf of this years charitable organization, the Association for Safe International Road Travel (ASIRT) and the Injured Marines Semper Fi Fund.
