For 5 years Rick and Dave passed the hat to the guys in the club house but it soon became evident that their effort were barely scratching the surface. The need was simply too great!!
Virgil Fassio, Commissioner of the Seattle Mariners RBI Club, contacted Rick and Dave in 2000. He and the RBI Club wanted to help. Rick and Dave could not have been more pleased. An excellent partnership was born giving rise to the November Dinner/Auction.
