Madison Area Y Charity Bocce Invitational Underway

The 12th Annual Madison Area YMCA Charity Bocce Invitational presented by Investors Bank is underway and will continue through the middle of October, with championship finals to follow.

 

Players are enjoying the friendly competition, camaraderie and challenges of Bocce in the crisp fall weather. The community is invited to watch the teams compete in this old world game under the stars at the far end of the Madison Area YMCA’s main parking lot located at 111 Kings Road in Madison. The Bocce Court is adjacent to the Forum Club. Four matches are played each evening starting at 6:30 p.m. on Tuesdays, Wednesdays and Thursdays.
