The Iola Community Improvement Task Force/PRIDE Committee and Sam and Louie’s restaurant are teaming up for a fundraiser Sunday to benefit the football stadium at Riverside Park.
From 11 a.m. to 9 p.m., 15 percent of all profits collected will go to CITF/PRIDE to repair ongoing drainage issues at the football stadium.
Funds also are being sought to help clean up the visitors locker room on the west side of the stadium.
Drainage traditionally has been an issue, and the visitors locker room has steadily deteriorated to the point of being “disgraceful,” said CITF/PRIDE member Donna Houser.
Houser and committee members Tom and Judy Brigham will be on hand Sunday at a table to explain where funds will be spent on the stadium, and to solicit more donations.
