Donkey basketball set for Nov. 3 at Dora School

Dora School will host a donkey basketball fundraiser game at 7 p.m. Friday, Nov. 3, in the school gym. The event has local students and school faculty staff members, as well as a school board member and community residents, riding donkeys and playing basketball, usually provoking lots of laughter. Proceeds from the event will help the senior class in its efforts to raise money for a senior trip.

Among those participating will be Ed Button from KKDY radio station, Cassidy Martin from the Dora school board and West Plains ag teacher Jay Hale. Dora faculty and staff expected to participate include Rick Luna, Donnie Berry, Angela Masters, Bev Davison, Paxton Smith and Jaime King. Several students and alumni have also signed up to ride the donkeys, organizers said. Audience members can volunteer to ride at the game as well.

Advance tickets are $6 and are available from any senior class member, at the front office at Dora School and at Roy’s store in Dora. Tickets at the gate will be $8. Children younger than 5 will be admitted free.
