MILWAUKEE — It's the athletic event of the year - the Rock, Paper, Scissors tournament at Lakefront Brewery.
The best of the best are competing for the title of champion on Thursday, March 7, at the popular brewery. Contestants compete in an open play to decide bracket seeding before putting it all on the line.
However, this tournament isn't just for glory. It's put on by Playworks Wisconsin which provides low-income schools in the Milwaukee area with year-round support services that encourage kids to participate in recreational activities and sports.
The Playworks Wisconsin website states its goal as: "When kids play well, they discover the joy of physical activity. They resolve conflicts and learn to get along. They come back to class ready to learn. Studies show that recess matters: a thoughtful approach to recess improves children’s physical health and social and emotional learning. Playworks helps you make sure all kids get to play well, every day. We partner with schools to support play every day onsite, offsite, and remotely."
It costs $15 to play in the tournament. Lakefront Brewery will donate $2 for every beer sold to Playworks Wisconsin.
