Lorton Monopoly Tournament - Feb. 23 - Fun for ALL ages!

Play Monopoly = Having Fun and supporting a local charity - LCAC!

Monopoly is a board game that millions upon millions of people play – some with a laid back attitude and others with fierce competitiveness.  On Saturday, February 23, the 6th Annual Monopoly Tournament will be held in Lorton at the Workhouse Arts Center and the tournament is for kids of all ages 8 and up (and all talent levels)!  All proceeds benefit the Lorton Community Action Center (LCAC)

The $25 registration fee per player includes a continental breakfast, a raffle ticket for door prizes and lunch, compliments of Glory Days Grill-Lorton.  Table sponsorships ($250) are also available and are a great way to support a community charity and promote your business!  Volunteers are also needed for various roles to help make the Tournament a success, including “Bankers” for Round 1 and 2.  To learn more, sponsor a table, volunteer and register to play, visit www.lortonmonopoly.com

Realtors Ron Kowalski and Susan Borrelli of Ron & Susan Associates with Re/Max Gateway are the co-creators of the successful Lorton tournament which has grown with each passing year.  “This tournament is for anyone who enjoys playing Monopoly and wants to support a local charity at the same time,” said Susan Borrelli.  The proceeds from this year’s tournament will benefit the Lorton Community Action Center (LCAC), an independent, 501(c)3 nonprofit organization serving low-income individuals and families in southeast Fairfax County, Virginia.
