Texas Hold ‘Em Assistant at St. Rita Fest
Purpose
Every Year, over 50,000 people attend St. Rita Fest in July. The festival is one of the
oldest and largest in the tri-state area with over 100 booths of food, games, and rides for people of all
ages. The festival is the largest fundraiser for St. Rita School for the Deaf and provides financial aid
and scholarships to the students attending the school. In order for the event to be a success, the
festival committee needs to involve many volunteers to assure that the school can provide quality education
to children 6 weeks to 21 years of age who are deaf and hard of hearing and for those children who need
special methods of communication or technological support. The Texas Hold ‘Em tournament brings in about
$25,000 net for the school.
