Only $240 left to go!

We are 1.3 seats away from our goal of donating 20 full season tickets to kids for the Storm this season.

That is a mere $240.00.

Come on people, you can bridge the final gap...I know you can.

Go to Stormfans.org and find out how to support the new ownership, enrich the lives of underprivileged kids in the community, spread the love of this great game to new and open minds, and be a part of this great team.

Think about how many young girls you will introduce to the grace of Sheryl Swoopes on the court, the raw power of Lauren Jackson in the post, and the vision and precision passing of Sue Bird on the break. Many of these young girls may not have had the opportunity to see that beauty and power are both parts of being a woman. They may not realize that competitive fire, determination and toughness in women are respected, admired and adored.

Think about all the young boys who will see women atheletes competing with passion, fire and determination and being cheered for it. Think about how much harder it will be for them to grow up and fall for age old stereotypes, for Madison Avenue definitions of beauty, of feminity.

Think about how much fun they are going to have.

We get to experience this stuff every game.

Let's share it and continue to inspire the next generation of players, coaches, and fans.
