Dayton Task Force will host its first annual adult rock band video tournament as a fundraiser for the Dayton Resource Bank on Saturday, Aug. 28 at 1st and 10 Grill, Dayton Valley Road. All proceeds from the tournament entry fees go to the Dayton Resource Bank, which aids students in Dayton schools.
Call event organizer Star Erickson, 246-8090, if you would like to form a four-person team to compete. Erickson said prizes will include gift certificates to area stores, landscaping packages from Community Roots and fine art.
The Dayton Resource Bank was established by the Dayton Task Force to assist students who need financial help. Dayton Resource Bank can help with class lab and equipment fees for science, math, art, culinary arts and woodshop. Also included is coverage of costs for sports physicals, gym, team, and choir uniforms and other items. In the past two school years, the Dayton Resource Bank has assisted about 100 students.
Every penny of the funds raised for the Dayton Resource Bank directly benefits Dayton area school children. There are no administrative costs.
Students and their families are invited to return service to their community through volunteer work for nonprofits such as the local food bank, senior center, libraries and schools.
