Dodgeball Event to Help Needy Children

On Saturday, Dec. 3, the Bensalem Public Safety Department will hold its 6th annual Dodgeball Tournament.

The event benefits under privileged children in Bensalem. It will be held in the old Armstrong Middle School at 2201 Street Road starting at 9 a.m.

Admission to the event will be one new toy per player or spectator.

Registration is limited to the first 32 teams, but the township is still looking for more participants, according to Public Safety Director Fred Harran.

The cost of registration is $25 per team if paid before the event or $35 at the door. An award will be presented to the first place team.

At Monday’s township council meeting, Harran told council members that the event is always fun and helps a great cause. He also tried to recruit members to play.

“I’m sure everyone would love to see a council team,” Harran said. “I’d even pay for the registration.”
