Another highly successful Ladies Volleyfest came and went on the weekend with well over 200 enthusiastic players — representing 35 teams from throughout south-central B.C. — enjoying every minute of the action both on and off the court.
Merritt Volleyball Association representative Dave Finch said this year’s event went great, and that the social on Saturday night at the Civic Centre was an absolute blast.
A substantial amount of money was raised for the B.C. Children’s Hospital from this year’s two Volleyfest tournaments, Finch said. In addition, a couple of boxes worth of toys were collected that will be distributed to charitable groups in the community of Merritt.
