Navigating Our Way Through Smith-Magenis Syndrome

IMG_8620

Gavin is our 13-year-old son that is diagnosed with Smith-Magenis Syndrome (SMS). For those that know him, he is a sweet, loving boy that has a smile that is absolutely contagious. This is how the title Grinning with Gavin was born. To follow Gavin’s journey please like our page Grinning with Gavin on Facebook and Instagram! A portion of the proceeds will go to the Smith Magenis Research Foundation (SMSRF). SMS is the deletion of Chromosome 17 that causes developmental delays, impacting everyday life.

Fast Facts about SMS

  • 1 in 15,000 live with this syndrome, but many go undetected

Grinning with Gavin March Madness Squares

Grinning with Gavin March Madness Squares

Rules and Game Play:

This board is formatted just like a Superbowl Board, and you have a piece of action in all 63 games of the NCAA Tourney without picking game winners!

Each $25 square represents multiple game score possibilities and each of the 63 games pay!

Once all the squares have been selected and the tournament starts, we will randomly pick numbers from 0-9 and assign those numbers to a particular row or column. These numbers represent the last number in the score of each team. In other words, if the final score is 87-73, then the winning square is the one with a winning team number of 7, and a losing team number of 3. The same would hold true for 67-63, 77-53.....

Since basketball scores vary beyond the typical football scoring (7-0), the odds are the same for each square.

Your numbers count for every game in the tourney (play-in games excluded) with payouts rising each round, so you have a chance at 63 payouts!

The numbers for the basketball squares will be selected when the grid is filled.
