Mud volleyball, beach volleyball and bags will highlight the first weekend of July event for the Clinton YMCA's 'Battle at the Cove' at Whitney's Cove in Clinton.

Executive Director Rennie Cluver says the registration deadline for that event is this Friday and he's excited about the possibilities this event will bring. He told Regional Radio News Monday morning on the WHOW Morning Show right now they need more teams to make the mud volleyball competition a go.

The Battle at the Cove and the recent Y golf outing are all part of events now falling under the umbrella of the Strong Kids Campaign. Cluver indicates the fundraiser is about halfway to its goal of raising $100,000.

The event is July 6 and you can visit clintoncommymca.org for a registration form or you can stop in at 417 South Alexander Street for that registration form. The high school division of volleyball kicks off in the morning hours and adults play through the afternoon.
