Accept Sheriff's Office Dodgeball Challenge To Support Local Kids

HAMILTON COUNTY, IN — The Hamilton County Sheriff's Office has a few questions for you: Do you have what it takes? Do you seek the thrill of victory? Do you dare to step onto the court? If you answered to any of these, the sheriff's office said "the gauntlet has been thrown down" for you to enter the Hamilton County Sheriff’s Office Shop for Kids Dodge, Duck, and Dip Dodgeball Challenge on April 27 at Hamilton Heights High School.

According to a release, the double-elimination tournament will "test the skills of all those who dare to enter" while also supporting a worthwhile cause; providing support for the less-fortunate youth of Hamilton County.

Shop for Kids provides numerous area youth in need of assistance with a $200 shopping trip during the holiday season, according to a release, adding that support is raised throughout the year to fund the $10,000 needed to finance the program.

The funds raised then go to provide the local children with toys, clothes, and other items to make the holiday season a bit brighter for those who may not have enough.

The sheriff's office said the entry fee for the Shop for Kids Dodgeball Challenge is $100 for a team of six, with special sponsorship options at the $250 and $500 levels.

The sheriff's office said to create your own weird and wacky team or come as you are.

The tournament is double elimination with prize money for the top three teams.
