was in charge of a basketball
booth. They gave prizes away to
contestants who got three bas

youth groups, or church groups
participated. A rental fee was re
quired for each booth, but the
rest of the profit went to the
clubs.
The activities were held at the
K-Mart parking lot. Prices ranged
from 10c for children to 25c for
students and adults.
