LAKEPORT, Calif. – First Pick Builders will hold its third annual charity softball tournament on Saturday, June 16, at County Lakeside Park.

Teams from the Lake County Adult Soft League will compete to see who will be able to donate the proceeds of the games to their chosen Lake County nonprofit organization.

In the past years First Pick has been able to raise more than $3,500 from local sponsorships and donations for charitable distribution.

Cheryl Pick, vice president and CFO of First Pick Builders has been the driving force in establishing the softball tournament.

“We always look forward to the tournament and this year is going to be even bigger than last year’s tourney,” said Pick.

She and League President Kevin Henderson have been organizing the details and logistics for a successful event.

They expect a packed field of players and spectators to turn out for the festivities on Saturday.

The public is invited to come out and watch the fun, cheering on their friends and favorites.

Pre-game registration begins at 8 a.m. and the games start at 9 a.m., continuing until the winners are crowned.

Participants will be fed and donations for the winner’s charity will be warmly accepted.
