Swing for a Cure

Efforts are underway to eradicate another debilitating illness and help those currently fighting.

The "swing for a cure" tournament is happening this weekend.

This is the 11th year for the softball fundraiser and cancer awareness event.

It's happening at the "miss softball america" fields and "wabash valley girls softball league" fields in vigo county.

Several local businesses have also donated items for a silent auction.

This tournament continues today.
