\"Casey<\/a>“This is a good fundraiser to help them out. They did an incredible job. We go to alot of tournaments like this and sometimes it’s in disorganized or things are just not in order,” said Gary Ferguson. “But these guys did a great job. All of the volunteers were excellent. I hope they keep doing it. Because if they do, I will keep coming back.”<\/p>\n

Everyone had such a great time at the tournament that they all wanted to play again. So, the Palmyra Volunteer Fire Department quickly setup registration for a second tournament Saturday. All 10 teams registered again.<\/p>\n
