HAWLEY, PA — Hawley Borough is hosting a 3-on-3 basketball tournament at Bingham Park on Saturday, August 6. Hoop for the Community basketball tournament will start at 10 a.m., and the suggested sign-up deadline is August 3. Anyone and everyone is encouraged to sign up online either as an individual or as a three-person team. All ages are welcome from youth to adult, experienced or inexperienced, and games will be organized accordingly.

Hoop for the Community is being organized by Dan Valenza, who has lived in Hawley for over 20 years, a member the AMSkier team, and a Wallenpaupack/Penn State graduate. Proceeds from Hoop for the Community will go into improving Hawley’s Bingham Park. Anyone who drives by the park will see that some areas could use some care and attention. The Hawley Borough has made improvements recently with a new playground and restroom facilities currently under construction, but Hoop for the Community can help add to those improvements in a fun way that gets the community involved. Valenza hopes to turn the tournament into an annual event.

The sign-up fee is $12 per player, with all proceeds going to Bingham Park. To register visit www.hoop4thecommunity.eventbrite.com. For more information email DanV@AMSki er.com, or text 570/470-7712.
