Alumni football game coming up in May

The famed Pisgah-Tuscola rivalry will renew itself six months sooner than usual as alumni from both schools take to the field again in support of the Canton Lions Club at 6 p.m. Saturday, May 5, at Pisgah Memorial Stadium.

Tickets are $10 for adults, $5 for children 6-17, $5 for men and women in uniform and free for children under 5. Preceding the game will be children’s activities, including a “Pass and Dash” competition sponsored by Carolina Pawn and Gun. Signups begin at 3:30 p.m. outside of the stadium. The gates will open at 4 p.m. and the “Pass and Dash” will begin at 4:30 p.m. As part of the fundraiser, the Canton Lions Club will operate the concession stand and offer sandwiches, hotdogs, snacks and drinks before the game.

The Canton Lions Club is looking for sponsors for this event.

We don’t plan to change that model. Support from our readers will help us maintain and strengthen the editorial independence that is crucial to our mission to help make Western North Carolina a better place to call home.
