The Times - Serving Waitsburg, Dayton and the Touchet Valley

DAYTON/WAITSBURG - Dayton and Waitsburg will battle it out in a basketball food drive fundraiser on Saturday, December 14 at the Waitsburg High School Gymnasium. Admission to the non-league games is a donation of non- perishable food items in a competition to see which town can bring in the most donations.

JV Girls will play at 2 p.m., JV boys at 3:30 p.m., Girls Varsity at 5 p.m. and Boys Varsity at 6:30 p.m.

Each community will have a trailer located in the Waitsburg High School parking lot where food items can be deposited. Attendees will be stamped for entrance into the games at the food deposit area. Each area will have a designated weigh-in supervisor. At the end of the evening's basketball events one community will be able to claim "bragging rights" for bringing in the most food. Donations will be separated equally between the two communities.
