In conjunction with its Feb. 11 home basketball games, the Barton Community College Athletic Department will host "Pink Out Night" as part of its annual support of Camp Hope.
To raise funds for the nearby youth camp, the department is selling commemorative Pink Out Night t-shirts, with all proceeds benefiting the Camp Hope initiative.
Last year, Barton Athletics presented a $4,000 donation to Camp Hope representatives for the second consecutive year, fueled by the sale of more than 400 shirts and the generosity of the Cougar community.
Held each June at the College's Camp Aldrich, the week-long camp is offered by KyMel, Inc. and provides a free, traditional summer camp experience for children who have, or have had, cancer. Camp Hope's mission is to create a normal, active, and safe environment where campers can celebrate life with, through, and beyond a cancer diagnosis.
Having supported the initiative for many years, Barton Athletics requests t-shirt preorders by January 19 in preparation for the fundraiser. Each donor will also receive two complimentary general-admission tickets for the Cougars' home basketball game against Fort Hays Tech Northwest on Wednesday, February 11. A donation check will be presented to Camp Hope representatives at halftime of the men's contest.
T-shirt pricing is $17 for youth small through adult extra-large, $20 for double extra-large, and $23 for triple extra-large.
Order forms are available at BartonSports.com. For additional information, contact Heather Panning at [email protected] or (620) 792-9377.
