The efforts continue to raise funds for the Geary County Children’s Choir to travel to a 4-day performance tour in St. Louis. A total of $30,000 will be needed to fund the trip.

This Thursday, Fat Toad Billiards at 741 West 6th Street will host an 8-ball pool tournament and if enough people sign up they will make it a two-day event into Friday.  The cost will be $20 per person with 2-man teams. The winner receives a 50/50 split between the winner and the Geary County Children’s Choir. Registration begins at 4:30 p.m. Practicing can begin at 5 p.m. BCA rules will apply and there will be double elimination.

There will be a couple of silent auction raffle items where you can purchase $1 tickets for the item of your choosing. Winners will be drawn at the conclusion of the tournament.

Also, on Thursday, the clothing drive to support the trip will conclude in the parking lot of Fat Toads. Donations can be clothing of all different sizes, shoes, purse, linens, towels and items of that type. No household furniture will be accepted.
