2025 Summer Smash donation day!!

11/11/2025

Here’s an update for all of our Summer Smash supporters:
With it being Pat’s birthday, I found it very fitting to present Dayton Children’s Hospital with our 2025 Summer Smash donation today. Thanks to your amazing support of our event, we were able to donate $5500 this year. We are now proud donators of $45,000 since starting our Summer Smash Memorial Volleyball Tournament for Pat Clift!! We have become a successful, prominent private donor to DCH, and we’re not done yet! As always, I’m so proud and very blessed by our efforts, and we couldn’t do it without your continuing support. Thank you to everyone that has been a part of our event - we wouldn’t be here without each and every one of you! Watch for our 2026 date and plan to join us for the 10th annual Summer Smash event - we want to make it one for the record book! 😎

Year 9 has come and gone and there aren’t enough THANK YOUs to everyone that supported our wonderful cause last night at the 🏐Annual Summer Smash Memorial Volleyball Tournament for Pat Clift🏐!! We are SO appreciative of every single one of you that played, came to watch, bought a raffle ticket, donated an item, sponsored a court or helped us in any way - your love and generosity to us and Dayton Children’s Hospital is, as always, overwhelming and we are very grateful for that. We’re still handling the accounting of the proceed total, so stay tuned for a final donation amount soon!

Thank you all again for a great afternoon/nite. . . and now we’re off to start planning our 10th YEAR SPECTACULAR!! (And of course, suggestions are always welcome 😉)

We’re down to the last month before the tournament and we are still seeking donations and court sponsors!

🏐We’ve learned we get lucky and get good stuff when we make our appeal for any items you may have to contribute to the tournament: Do you have gift cards for bars/restaurants/etc that you won’t ever go to? Do you have bottles of wine or liquor that you’ve won or received as a gift that isn’t your fav? Did you get a Christmas/Birthday/Anniversary gift that just ain’t your taste? We always reach out for any “re-gifted” items that we can use to create raffle baskets you’ve come to know and love. Every single donation help us keep our costs low and all proceeds going to Dayton Children’s Hospital in Pat’s memory.

🏐We are also still looking for court sponsors. Are you a small/local business owner? Do you know a small/local business owner? Court sponsorship is one of the easiest and cost-effective ways to advertise that biz and drum up some business! Get in touch and let me know if you’d like to get your name out there during our event.

And as always, feel free to SHARE, SHARE, SHARE! 😎
