A charity pool tournament fundraiser will be held Aug. 6 at Lappawinzo Fish & Game Protective Association, 25 Lappawinzo Road, Allen Township.

This annual event is organized by Sunday Pool League, a not-for-profit organization currently consisting of more than 100 local members throughout the Lehigh Valley. Proceeds benefit a local cause or organization each year.

This year, proceeds will be donated to Outcast Rescue.

Outcast is a rescue specializing in pit bulls and rottweilers. The group teams up with local shelters to help lower the amount of adoptable dogs sitting in shelters. They are a group of all volunteers who love to educate people on these often-misunderstood breeds.

There is a cost for the double-elimination tournament. Registration starts 1 p.m., and the tournament begins 1:30 p.m.

Prizes will be awarded to the winner.

Other highlights of the day include a Chinese auction, 50/50 tickets and raffles.

The event is open to those 21 years and older. Playing in the tournament is not required to attend the event.
