Thanksgiving weekend event to take place on Saturday, Nov. 30
The 5th Annual Tommy Bohanon Foundation Softball Tournament and Toy Drive is set for Thanksgiving weekend, with team registrations now open.
The seasonal family event will take place on Saturday, November 30 starting at 8 a.m. at the Northwest Cape Coral Softball Complex, 1030 NW 16th Place, 33993.
The one-day tournament and toy drive will benefit local families in need. Attendees will be able to enjoy bounce houses, holiday craft vendors, food trucks and exciting action on the softball fields. Plus, Santa himself will make a special guest appearance to add to the holiday excitement. The admission fee is a new, unused toy on the day of the tournament.
More than $70,000 worth of toys and contributions was raised during the event’s first four years. All donations go toward a shopping spree at which the recipients can purchase both gifts and necessities.
The registration fee is $300 — or $300 worth of unwrapped, new toys per team, for up to 12 players. To register a team or make a donation, visit: tommybohanonfoundation.org/softball/.
