Come cheer on the 5th Annual March Mayhem Basketball Tournament hosted by Orcas Island Park and Recreation this weekend, Mar. 18 and 19.

Ten teams are traveling from near and far to participate in the two-day event. Saturday tips off at 9:00 a.m. with round-robin games in the Orcas Island High School and Old Gyms; the last game of day one is scheduled to begin at 4:30 p.m. Day two holds the final tournament bracket, where teams are placed based on their Saturday earnings as they fight for first place. Sunday games start at 8:30 a.m. with the championship game at 1:30.

Concessions will be available for purchase compliments of the Orcas Island Youth Majors Baseball team. Come on down, grab some snacks, stay dry and warm, and have a great time.
