The Franklin County Dixie Youth league will be out and about on Saturday selling bottled water to help raise money for families who can’t afford the Youth league’s entry fee.
The Dixie Youth league includes organized baseball, softball and t-ball – it is extremely popular with children in the county.
This year, however, because of the number of days the bay has been closed to oyster harvesting, there are many families who are having a hard time paying their bills, much less paying the 50 dollar fee to have their children take part in Dixie Youth. To help cover those expenses, Dixie Youth supporters are going to be at the entrance to the Eastpoint fishing pier on Saturday during chili cookoff selling bottled water to folks driving to the island and who are fishing along the pier.
If you would like to help the cause, then certainly stop by to buy some water or make a donation. They should be out there through much of the day.
