Donkey Basketball is again coming to the Yosemite High School gym on Monday [February 24] at 7 p.m.

Sponsored by Yosemite High School Future Farmers of America as a fund-raiser, the game will feature teams from H&L Lumber Company, Yosemite Lumber, students and staff.

Elementary school classes will have a chance to earn 10 percent of the profits. To do this, the students simply need to show up and indicate who their teacher is. Whichever class has the most people attending — this includes families — will win 10 percent of the evening’s profits.

The community, both kids and adults, are invited to attend this sometimes very comical contest. There will be food and refreshments available during the game and organizers say, “everyone will want to be present for the half-time extravaganza.”

Advance tickets are $4 per adult and kids (younger than 12), $2. Tickets at the door will be more expensive.

For tickets or information: Steve Ecklund, YHS FFA advisor, 683-4667, extension 261.
