Dalton and Whitfield County First Responders Compete in Charity Softball Event

At  Riverbend Park this Saturday , the Dalton Police and Fire Departments squared off against the Whitfield County Sheriff’s Office and Fire Department in a spirited softball game.

The game, which started at 10:00 AM, was more than just a friendly competition. It was an opportunity for the community to come together and support local charities, with all proceeds from the event going directly to those in need.

“We obviously have a rivalry with the city, but we work well with them. We’re not going to discuss the score, but I’m just glad to see everyone out here and enjoying time with family outside of our duties” said player Jose Rivera.

From the intense plays on the field to the supportive cheers from the sidelines, the Battle of the Badges truly showcased the spirit of giving and community pride.
