Save the Date/Register: Bishop Backer Community Day is Feb. 17

You’re invited to join the Bishop Backers on Feb. 17 for Community Day 2018, a free Delaware celebration held at Ohio Wesleyan.

The event will include free admission to the varsity men’s and women’s basketball doubleheader (with a canned food donation) and a Delaware Expo showcasing local nonprofit organizations and businesses.

Interfaith Service Teams and other OWU groups wishing to participate in/fundraise at the expo are asked to register before Feb. 5 at www.owu.edu/BishopBackers.

The event will feature an indoor children’s play area courtesy of the Delaware Community Center YMCA, a visit from Columbus Zoo animals, a chance to meet OWU athletes, and free raffles for prizes including a big-screen television.

Attendees also are invited to watch the Battling Bishop men’s and women’s basketball teams take on the Gators of Allegheny College. The women’s game tips off at 1 p.m., and the men’s game follows at 3 p.m. The community expo will be held from noon to 3:30 p.m. in the field house, with zoo animals visiting from 2:15 p.m. to 3:15 p.m.

All canned food donations collected will benefit the Delaware County Hunger Alliance, which collaborates with organizations countywide to help address hunger and food insecurity issues.

We’ll see you Feb. 17!
