How It Works

Your cost is $4.00 per CD when purchased in quantities of 10 or more. The suggested resale value of the disc is $10. At the suggested resale value, each CD sold nets you $6.00. Sell just 10 CDs and you can make $60 for your team!

The $4.00 that Ben Rudnick and Friends receives covers the cost of making and manufacturing the CDs. Once the band’s costs are covered ALL of the proceeds will be donated back to Challenger Baseball!

"...an upbeat and catchy tune, whose uplifting, cheery lyrics continue to play out in your head long after the CD has ended."
~ Exceptional Parent Magazine - June 2007

"...a zippy Rudnick-ian jam."

Conceived of by Tony Chironno, a Challenger Baseball director, manager and parent and put to music by award winning band Ben Rudnick & Friends, the Challenger Baseball Song captures the excitement and pride shared by thousands of young people in the Challenger Baseball program.
In addition to “The Challenger Baseball Song,” Ben Rudnick and Friends have added five of their
best-loved songs to make this a CD the whole
family will enjoy together.

Why did Ben Rudnick and Friends get involved? Because Ben and Tony have been friends
for twenty years, Ben loves baseball and is
thrilled to help Tony with this great cause.

Besides being a “good cause,” the CD features great music!
Ben Rudnick and Friends have won four Parents’ Choice Awards (and countless other awards) for their recordings. Having the recording playing on a boom box and for sale at a table during a Challenger game is a sure-fire way to attract attention and create awareness about the fundraising event.

Another way to sell the CD is to have a Challenger parent be the point person for CD distribution. Create awareness via emails or announcements at games and functions.

Use established Challenger sponsors for selling the CD...
If a local sponsor has a store, getting counter space for the disc near the checkout line is an easy way to go. The sponsor is already a Challenger friend and is likely to be happy to help in any way they can. Local radio stations can help to. Just provide the station with a CD and a list of sponsors selling the song. Get the station to play the song and mention the sponsors!

Other possibilities for CD sales include teaming up with local minor league baseball teams. Arrange to have the song played between innings and have a table where the CDs can be purchased.

Challenger Baseball is a great activity!
The Challenger Baseball Song and CD celebrate the players and people who make it work. Many people realize this and are eager to help. The CD is a bridge to those people and a great way to spread awareness about Challenger Baseball.

Ben and his buddies met many players and coaches
when they played the Challenger World Jamboree
in Norfolk, VA in May 2007 and are eager to help.
