AREA YOUTH CAPTURE HONORS AT 17TH ANNUAL ROTARY PUNT PASS & KICK COMPETITION

Eighty three (83) youth from ages 5 to 13 participated in the 17th annual Rotary Punt, Pass & Kick competition at the Big Sandy High School football complex on Friday October 9th. "Weather conditions for this year's event were perfect", said Richard Roth who has helped put on the event since its inception. "It is great to see kids, parents, teachers and volunteers getting out to help and enjoy the fun and sun." The Big Sandy Pioneers football team was on hand to help with the event too. "It's a great tie-in to have the football players interacting with the young boys and girls who support them on the sidelines. Many of those varsity players now were once PP&K participants", Roth said.

Thanks to all the parents, Big Sandy football players, and Rotarians who helped make this year's event a success.
