Twelve teams to play in softball tournament

The annual summer softball tournament, now named The Kenny Hearne Summer Classic, will be held from Thursday through Saturday, August 4 – 6, on the North Dam Park upper and lower fields. Twelve teams are signed up to play.

On both Thursday and Friday, two games will be played simultaneously on the upper and lower fields at 6 p.m., and two more games at 7:15 p.m.

Games are scheduled to start at 9 a.m. on Saturday.

Kenny Hearne, who passed away last year, had a love of softball and had played in the league. A celebration-of-life ceremony held for him last year took place on the North Dam upper softball field. The tournament was renamed in commemoration of him.
