Kicking It Accepted at Sundance Film Festival

Our second filmanthropy project called “Kicking It” was accepted at the Sundance Film Festival. Here is the news release on this great achievement.

It is a great honor to have your film accepted at this festival as 8,000 films are considered for about 125 spots. I am very proud of this work – kudos to the director, Susan Koch – and to all of my friends that helped make this project come to life.

Two films, two acceptances at Sundance…I am humbled beyond words.

Thanks to Our Fans

Thank you for showing so much class and dignity last night while we all observed a moment of silence for Sean Taylor. Local professional athletes are a brotherhood and each member of the Washington Capitals family shares in the collective pain of this tragedy.
