The Bear Creek School hosted Christian Faith School at its sixth annual Dig Pink volleyball match on Oct. 3 in support of The Side-Out Foundation and breast cancer awareness.

The Grizzlies raised $2,700 — including net income from gate, concessions, T-shirt sales and a bake sale organized by junior Meghan McCahill — for The Side-Out Foundation.

When Bear Creek first started hosting this event, the two schools played in the same league, but after a few years, Christian Faith moved to 1B and then last year Bear Creek moved to 1A. They’ve continued the tradition and have supported the cause and one another.

In 2012, they donated nearly $2,300 and in 2013 they raised nearly $2,500.

Christian Faith won the match, 3-0.
