Tommy Bohanon Foundation to host 6th annual Softball Tournament and Toy Drive
Thanksgiving weekend event to take place on Saturday, Nov. 29
The sixth annual Tommy Bohanon Foundation Softball Tournament and Toy Drive is set for Thanksgiving weekend, with team registration now open.
The seasonal family event will take place on Saturday, Nov. 29, starting at 8 a.m. The tournament for toys will take place at the Northwest Cape Coral Softball Complex at 1030 NW 16th Place in Cape Coral.
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 with exciting action on the softball fields. To help kick start the holiday spirit, Santa will make a special guest appearance. 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 five years. All donations go toward a shopping spree at which the recipients can purchase both gifts and necessities.
The registration fee is $500 — or $350 worth of unwrapped, new toys per team, for up to 12 players. To register a team or make a donation, visit: TommyBohanonFoundation.org.
