KNCO & Kane’s Penny Pitch to benefit DVSAC

KNCO & Kane’s 5th Annual Penny Pitch will be held at Kane’s Restaurant at 11:30 a.m. Saturday, June 23. Games begin at 1 p.m.

“The mission of the Penny Pitch is to provide a unique and fun promotional event for Nevada County broadcasters and Kane’s Restaurant’s friends and valued customers,” said Joe Hevia Jr, Penny Pitch founder. “Secondarily, our mission is to provide an event and venue for individuals, teams and businesses to benefit a nonprofit organization, such as Domestic Violence and Sexual Assault Coalition, by soliciting donations. And it is just a ton of fun.”

On being chosen as this year’s nonprofit to benefit from the 5th Annual Penny Pitch, Niko Johnson, DVSAC executive director said: “We are thrilled to have DVSAC chosen this year. My family and I attended the Penny Pitch last year and my 9-year-old daughter nearly won the thing. I encourage everyone to form a team, come on out and pitch a penny for a great cause.”

Kane’s Restaurant will offer a special Penny Pitch menu, live entertainment and special drink prices. Raffle prizes are available throughout the afternoon.
