Shootout aims to stop malaria

Posted by Bwcarchives on

UPPER FALLS - Salem UMC held a 'Nothing but Nets' shootout Oct. 28, to raise money to fight malaria.

The shootout featured three separate 'shooting' events: children shot soccer balls at a goalie, the Rev. Cliff Webner; adults chipped golf balls into a net; and adults and youth tried shooting baskets through the hoop.

Children and adults collected pledges for the three events, and raised $1,000 to purchase 100 insecticide treated bed nets to fight malaria.
