Here's how you can participate in the Charity Challenge Home Run Derby.
1. Make a $20 donation to the American Cancer Society.
2. You will then select a sealed envelope that will have inside the name of one of the top 25 MLB home run leaders as of 8-22-08.
3. If the name of the player in the envelope you select hits the most home runs in the month of September, then you're the winner of a pair of Phillies playoff tickets, and a seat from Veterans Stadium, which is courtesy of BC Sports.
In the event the Phillies don't reach postseason play, the winner would receive $100 cash.
It's that simple, and the American Cancer Society could have another $500 flow into its coffers.
Plus everyone who enters the contest will receive a $10 gift card to BC Sports, who is a sponsor of the Charity Challenge raffle ticket and a leader in sports memorabilia, with stores in the tri-state area, including Havertown.
That's a pretty good deal for what amounts to be a $10 entry fee and you'll be helping the fundraising efforts of the 2008 Daily Local/Sunoco Charity Challenge Championship for the American Cancer Society.
The Charity Challenge Home Run Derby will open to the first 25 participates who enter begining this Friday, August 22nd.
