(KMZA)--The annual Baileyville Benefit Basketball & Volleyball Tournament will take place this weekend, February 23 & 24, at the Nemaha Central High School in Seneca.
Organizer Clete Kramer says the funds raised from this year’s event will help four families with children struggling with medical conditions. They include Everett Tjaden, Rylee Howard, Elizabeth and Morgane Donnelley, William and Kameron Meade.
The public is invited to watch as twenty-four volleyball teams and eighteen basketball teams compete, with playing beginning at 8:00 Saturday morning and continuing on Sunday. The championship volleyball match will take place at 2:00 Sunday afternoon, followed by the basketball championship game at 3:00.
A concession stand will offer numerous fresh-baked goods and a variety of meal choices. Other activities include a huge list of silent auction items and a wheel to spin for more prizes. Chance book drawings follow the last game and a live auction of donated items begins at about 5:30 Sunday evening.
Organizer Dan Broxterman credits the success of the benefit, which began in 1982, to the generosity and hard work of numerous people and businesses.
