The Friendly City Optimist Club is holding a music-themed fundraiser to generate money to help upgrade the Optimist Minor Girls’ fastball field complex.
The “Fix the Field, Name that Tune” event takes place on Tuesday, Jan. 24, at 7 p.m. at the Moose Jaw Public Library theatre. The theme for the evening will focus on baseball.
Six teams of two participants each — pulled from community groups and businesses — will put their listening abilities and mental recollections to the test as they attempt to identify the song and artist or the movie from which a song originated.
The team that wins will receive bragging rights and a prize, although the big winners will be the players who use the fastball diamonds.
Former mayor Glenn Hagel will act as the event MC/Alex Trebek-like inquisitor, while Greg Gower will provide the musical support on piano.
Residents are encouraged to attend to enjoy the fun and frivolity. Tickets are $20 each, and since there is a limited supply, people should purchase their tickets quickly.
For more information and to purchase tickets, call Gayle at 306-693-4514.
