Rita's Ice for Autism
Here at the Red City Outlaws we encourage and commend our players and staff to volunteer their time and services for a good cause. A prime example of such selflessness was demonstrated today up in Royersford, PA by one of our veteran players, J.D. Hayward. Outlaws owners had the opportunity to speak with Mr. Hayward via phone conference regarding his experience at the Rita's Ice for Autism event and were also able to get an understanding as to why he felt so moved to participate:
Owners: " What motivated you to participate in this event?"
J.D.: " I have an autistic cousin that I basically raised from birth until 3 years old. We moved to Pottstown for lack of better education where we lived. My aunt was heavy into drugs and I didn't want anyone to know, but my schooling was being affected. To this day my cousin calls me "Dad" despite my efforts to have him call me "Cousin John" or just "John", but I don't mind it."
Owners: " It must have been tough growing up with someone who has autism, so what advise would you give to the world on living with an autistic person?"
J.D: "Patience. You have to have patience because if you don't you will frustrate yourself and it's unfair to them."
Again, the Red City Outlaws wuld like to thank J.D. for his time. We commend you for your wonderful, positive, and selfess contribution to Rita's Ice for Autism!

In addition, 30% of all funds raised for the day will also be supporting athletic development for “The Red City Outlaws.” The more volunteers we can inspire to join us, the more money we can raise to help “The Red City Outlaws” and HFI simultaneously. Haydenfilms has agreed to share their fundraising permit and collection resources with all volunteers for the September 15th event.
