Kicking Into the Holidays

The City of Daytona Beach is bringing employees together for a day of friendly competition, teamwork and community giving during its Kicking Into the Holidays kickball tournament Saturday, Nov. 21, from 10 a.m. to 1 p.m. at Jackie Robinson Ballpark.

The holiday-themed event will feature teams representing the city's Fire, Police, Utilities and Public Works departments, competing on the field while supporting local families in need. The event is free and open to the public. Residents are invited to attend, cheer on their favorite departments and join in the spirit of giving.

Between tournament games, children and families will have opportunities to take the field and participate in fun, interactive activities. Concessions will also be open throughout the event, with food and beverages available for purchase.

In addition to friendly competition and family activities, the event will serve as an opportunity to collect donations for two local organizations. Attendees are encouraged to bring new, unwrapped toys to benefit families through the Early Learning Coalition or nonperishable food items to support Halifax Urban Ministries (HUM). Donations will be accepted at the ballpark entrance on event day.
