LOBS OF LOVE EVENT AT MILFORD INDOOR TENNIS TO BENEFIT THE MOWAT-WILSON SYNDROME FOUNDATION

Milford, CT – A fun evening of tennis and prizes is on tap for September 29 at Milford Indoor Tennis (580 Bridgeport Ave.). The Lobs of Love Event will benefit the Mowat-Wilson Syndrome Foundation.

Mowat-Wilson Syndrome is a rare but extremely serious condition found in many countries and across ethnic groups. In Connecticut, five children – two of whom live in Milford – are known to be affected by the disorder. Experts estimate that hundreds of U.S. children are affected by Mowat-Wilson. The Foundation is raising funds to hold a medical conference on the syndrome in 2020. Significant signs of the syndrome include distinctive facial features, intellectual disability, delayed development and other birth defects.

Lobs of Love attendees will enjoy a fun-filled evening featuring round robin mixed doubles and serving competitions. A silent auction and raffles are included, as well as appetizers and drinks. Event organizers are seeking donations of goods or services as well as financial contributions.

Current Platinum Sponsors include: Milford Indoor Tennis, The Keeney Manufacturing Company, Rocco Property Management, Pyramid Real Estate Group and Fairfield County Bank. For sponsorships, donations, or additional information, please contact Laura Chrysostomo at laurac@mowat-wilson.org
