Did you know that autism now affects 1 in 88 children and yet receives less than 5% of the research funding of many less prevalent childhood diseases? Mind blowing, isn't it?

The Tioga Tigers are on a mission to take down autism and invite you to join them in their crusade.

This Sunday, January 26th, there will be a wrestling tournament at the Tioga Central High School and Middle School Gym. This is a 6 man round robin and will begin at 9am.

Half of the proceeds collected at this wrestling tournament will be donated to Achieve and Institute for Child Development. There will be food through the day as well as raffles and 50/50's. Your participation as a spectator will lend support to the desperately needed research on autism as well as our local youth wrestlers.
