The Tucker County Varsity Football team currently sets at 8-0 on the season. This past week was their bye week, and they hosted their annual elimination dinner and silent auction fundraiser. There were an estimated 150 plus individuals that attended the meal and participated in the auction. Attendees were served a spaghetti dinner with salad, bread and desserts by the players.
