Kick It To Malaria in MN
A Malaria No More Fundraising Event
Please join us in celebrating World Malaria Day (April 25th) by playing soccer -- kicking it to malaria -- and raising funds for bed nets to help with malaria prevention.

We will get together at 7201 West 83rd Street in Bloomington, MN on Saturday April 25th from 11am-1pm to play some soccer and learn about malaria and how we can help.
In the event of steady rain or high winds, the games will be moved to the same time (11am-1pm) on Saturday, May 2nd. If you have any questions regarding the weather and the status of the games the morning of, please call Tzviatko at 773-936-3154 or Rochelle at 952-486-1903.

Take along your friends and families to enjoy a day at the park. Playground equipment and basic park amenities will be available for families. Spectators are asked to bring their own seats for their comfort.
