2019 Ping Pong Tournament
April 3, 2019
The 2019 Ping Pong Tournament, like its three predecessors, was a resounding success. Over 40 players, pre-registered or walk-ins, got lots of playing time: eagerly volleying while awaiting bracketing assignments, while waiting for their next opponent, even after they were eliminated! Everyone had fun: families with young children, senior advanced players, a man in a wheelchair who came to learn how to play, and a man who came—for the second year—from Panama City to join his veteran buddies. DJ Brandon Bender kept the music lively, door prizes surprised participants, and the concession stand did a lively business. Check out the photos below. On top of that, the proceeds from generous sponsorships, preview-party donations, and silent auction netted nearly $19,000 in support of the Renascence program—several thousand more than any previous year! Make plans for the 2020 tournament, the first Saturday in March! Job Opening: Program Manager

March 18, 2019
In December, Executive Director Ty Pelham departed Renascence to take another position. In his absence, board president Nelson Smith has voluntarily stepped in as interim executive director; his office hours are 7 am to 3 pm Monday through Friday. Board member Joe Crowley ably fills in for Smitty when he is absent. In this interim period, the Board of Directors has reviewed and scaled down the job description, re-titling it Program Manager, making it a part-time position, and focusing the position specifically around program administration and oversight. Fund raising and public relations, customarily among executive director responsibilities, will fall to the board. This revision will tighten the position’s focus while saving money on salary. Anyone interested in applying for Program Manager may inquire at the Renascence office, 334-832-1402, or email his or her inquiry and resume to renascenceinc@outlook.com. We thank Ty for his able service to Renascence and wish him well in his new position. We look forward to filling the Program Manager’s position this spring. Thanks Ty

March 15, 2018
Renascence’s Third Annual Benefit Ping Pong Tournament, held March 2-3, 2018 at Alcazar Shrine Center in Montgomery, was a great success. Participation at both the Preview Party on Friday night and Tournament on Saturday were at or near record levels. The two-day event earned a substantial profit of $15,372.80. On Friday night, everyone enjoyed great music by Lo Fi Loungers and delicious food by Debbie Kemsel Catering. Folks also enjoyed browsing and bidding on items in the fabulous Silent Auction, getting photographed at Gwen Moore’s Fun Photo Booth, and playing some ping pong. The Saturday Tournament saw 57 players of all ages and abilities engage in spirited competition. Results were as follows: Youth: Champ: Danny Trock; Runner-up: Riley Covert Teen, Beginner: Champ: Ann Mary Varghese; Runner-up: Alex Varghese Teen, Intermediate: Champ: Aija Kosmrlj; Runner-up: Reid Roberts Adult, Beginner: Champ: Shadrick Kagoro; Runner-up: Tiabet Essiet Adult, Intermediate: Champ: Naj Kosmrlj; Runner-up: Vikas Gupta Senior, Beginner: Champ: Guy Shores; Runner-up: Dennis Romana Senior, Intermediate: Champ: Philip Sorenson; Runner-up: Patrick Bianchi Senior, Advanced: Champ: Phil Dillard; Runner-up: Dan Bradshaw Recognition for the group bringing the largest number of players (and a cheering section) goes to the Capitol Heights United Methodist Youth Group. The success of this event would not have been possible without the support of our thirty generous and dedicated sponsors, to whom we offer our profound thanks. A big thank you also goes to our hard working Ping Pong Committee, whose diligence and creativity made the Tournament truly fun for all. |
