On Saturday August 9 and Sunday August 10, the Bucky Strunk Memorial Field (aka the Penelec Field) in Clearfield will be the host site for the 31st Annual Past Your Prime Modified Fastpitch Softball Tournament.
Five teams, including the defending champion Meatheads, will vie for the tourney crown. Joining the Meatheads will be the Bedford Over the Hillbillys, Denny’s Beer Barrel Pub, More Whiskey from Mechanicsburg, and the Nanty Glo Moose.
At approximately 1:00 PM on Saturday (after Game 2), there will be a short ceremony to honor Past Your Prime founding father and local baseball and softball legend Jerry Bickel, who recently passed away after a short illness. Any friends or former teammates are strongly urged to attend.
As in year’s past, the primary beneficiary of this charity event will be the Marine Corps Toys for Tots program.
The Old Town Softball League concession stand will be open both days with delicious local fare.
