The first of what organizers hope will be many Alumni Football games for former Vinton and Vinton-Shellsburg players will take place July 8. Organizer Randy Scheel and the coaches and players continue to work on their drills and plays during weekend practices.

Like they did while in high school, the players posed for a photo on the bleachers during their Sunday practice.

The game takes place at 7 p.m. Friday, July 8, in Center Point. The team is on Facebook; see their page HERE. See an earlier story about the team HERE.

Vinton sponsors include Betterton Chiropractic and McDowell's.
