The 44th Annual P.A.S.S. 24-Hour Basketball Marathon took place last weekend. There are still a few invoices out, but it is estimated that the proceeds will net over $7,200.00 for this year’s Marathon. Money raised helps to fund the Paulding Area Support Society. Their mission is to help disabled individuals with medical assistance as well as therapy and medication cost. The planning committee wants to acknowledge the entire community for their continued support of this long running charity fundraiser which is held on Easter weekend at the Payne Elementary gymnasium.
The first place winners from the marathon were as follows:
MINI-TOTS: Paulding Ace Hardware with 30 points
TOTS: Panther All Stars with 21 points
MINI-YOUTH: Bricklayers with 54 points
YOUTH: K&K Insulation with 61 points
CO-ED: True Vine Tree Service with 79 points
MENS: Walnut Street Warriors with 91 points
The traveling plaque was awarded to marathon committee member Clint Reinhart for his years of dedication to make the Marathon a success.
