In 2007, tournament was born to benefit the Lakes Region Boys & Girls Club. That first year, the tournament had 24 players and raised $1,200. In 2014 Mike Baron of Baron's Billiards and the Café Déjà vu Pub Mania Team joined forces to continue to grow the tournament. Last year the tournament had 65 players and raised $8,998. In total the tournament has raised around $77,000. Now heading into its 15th year, there are hopes to top last year’s effort and bring the total to over $85,000.
The tournament is seeking help in supporting the youth of the Lakes Region and are looking for sponsors, food for lunch, and items for raffles and auction. Any donation will make a difference.
