Hits for Hospice 2011

Charity tournament a "hit" with volunteers and participants


from WDTV 5 News:



Hospice Care held its second annual Hits for Hospice softball tournament at White Park in Morgantown Saturday.

Ten teams were at the all day event, which benefits Hospice Care.

More then 100 volunteers, players, and fans from around the community came to the co-ed tournament to raise money.

The non-profit organization relies on events like this to stay open.

Hospice Care officials said these tournaments help to get the community together and stay involved. "We're just gathering momentum, and people enjoy playing to raise money for patient care," said Cynthia Woodyard of Hospice Care.

Folks traveled from as far as Elkins and Pennsylvania to play in the tournament.

Our thanks to those who came out and volunteered, or tried their hand in the annual Hits for Hospice tournament! It's events like these that allow us to continue to provide quality hospice care to individuals throughout West Virginia!
