(KMZA)--The annual Baileyville Benefit Basketball and Volleyball Tournament will take place this Saturday and Sunday at the Nemaha Central High School in Seneca.
The annual benefit raises money for local recipients, or recipients with local ties, who have a medical need.
This year's recipients will be James Beckwith, Justin Eisenbarth, Mary Herrmann and Lynn Ronnebaum.
The tournament will include 24 volleyball teams and 18 basketball teams. Volleyball will be in the main gym, and basketball will be in the secondary gym and in the elementary school. Games will be played Saturday and Sunday, beginning at 8:00 each morning. The championship volleyball game will take place Sunday afternoon at 2:00 and championship basketball game at 3:00.
In addition to the tournament, there will be a spinning wheel, a silent auction, a concession stand with fresh baked items and delicious meal choices. A chance book drawing will begin shortly after the championship basketball game, and a live auction of donated items and services will begin at about 5:00 to cap off the 2-day event.
In recent years, the tournament has raised around $200,000 annually.
