A Department of Parks and Recreation Sand Volleyball Tournament will be held on June 5th, 2016 at Wesselman Park, 551 North Boeke Road, Evansville, IN. Proceeds from the event will be donated to Holly’s House.
Team participants will receive a shirt and be eligible for prizes and returned registration fees. For more information regarding team registration fees and event details, please email Karen Ham at uriah82@aol.com
The goal of the event is to encourage community members to participate in a fun and safe activity while raising money for Holly’s House, a safe and welcoming place where sexually abused children and adult victims of domestic or sexual violence can report the crime. Holly’s House serves nine Southwest Indiana Counties, and provides a child abuse prevention education program, “Think First and Stay Safe,†to elementary students in five of the counties served. Last year, Holly’s House assisted 400 victims of child sexual abuse and adults who experienced sexual assault or domestic violence, and presented the “Think First and Stay Safe†program to over 5,000 children, all at no cost.
Holly’s House is a non-residential victims’ advocacy center providing services for victims of child abuse, domestic violence and sexual assault in southwest Indiana. The mission of the organization is to empower victims of intimate crime and abuse by providing support, promoting justice and preventing violence.
