Description

My name is Edd Pedro and my daughter Kelsey was diagnosed with JRA (Juvenile Rheumatoid Arthritis) at the age of 3. Thanks to the miracle of modern medicine, her JRA is under control. As a result, we have been giving back to the Arthritis Foundation to help them fight for a cure for everyone with Arthritis. I am holding the 16th annual Edd Pedro’s Fight for a Cure Wiffle ball Tournament and Mega Raffle on August 11 at Slater Park in Pawtucket, Rhode Island 02861. This past year we had 40+ teams from 6 states, RI, MA, NH, CT, ME, PA. Over the past 15 years, we have raised over $ 375,000 from this event. We have 3 divisions Competitive, Fun, and Youth.
