Nevada softball hosting Strike Out Cancer Night

Along with Nevada Regional Medical Center and support from Heartland Behavioral Health Services, the Nevada High School softball team, will host a Strike Out Cancer Night at its varsity game against Carl Junction Wednesday afternoon at Bushwhacker Field.

By donating $5 for every strikeout, as well as sales from the concession stand, a raffle of a giant decorated sugar cookie, and donations from fans in attendance, the groups will help raise money for local women who cannot afford mammograms.

First pitch is scheduled for 4:30 p.m.
