The 6th annual Joe Varosi Slow Pitch Challenge. was held on Aug. 20. The annual event is a friendly game between the “Has-Beens” (all over the age of 50) and the “Wanna-Bes” (all under the age of 50). The event is a fundraiser in memory of Joe Varosi, a local who loved slow pitch and passed away due to cancer.
The Fernie Hotel hosted a barbeque and fundraiser after the game. All proceeds from the event will go to cancer research in Joe Varosi’s honour.
