Cheer on charity croquet players in PoCo

The Port Coquitlam Community Foundation hosts its annual croquet tournament on July 24.

Spectator tickets are now on sale for the Port Coquitlam Community Foundation’s biggest fundraiser of the year.

The philanthropy group, which distributes thousands of dollars in grants to non-profit groups, will host its signature event — Croquet for Community — on July 24.

But instead of a view from the banks of the Fraser River, participants and viewers this year will see the action unfold from the grounds at Citadel middle school (1265 Citadel Dr.).

Sponsored in part by The Tri-City News, the tournament is made up of 16 teams of three players each and competing in a round-robin format for a chance to capture the Golden Mallet.

Spectator entry at $85 includes appetizers throughout the day, a catered dinner and entertainment; beer and wine is an additional cost.
