<p>DeKALB – The First Baptist Church of DeKalb will host a table tennis tournament to help raise funds for victims of Hurricane Harvey.</p>
<p>The event will be at noon Saturday at the church, 349 S. Third St., and anyone can sign up regardless of skill level.</p>
<div id="inline-ad"></div>
        <script>
        if( ww < 1024 ){
          $("#inline-ad").html('<div id="origami-ad-container"></div>'); // SHOW ORIGAMI CONTAINER WHEN WINDOW LESS THAN 1024px
        } else {
          $("#inline-ad").html('<div class="bigbox"></div>'); // SHOW BIG BOX WHEN WINDOW GREATER THAN OR EQUAL TO 1024px
        }
        </script>
        
<p>The entry fee is $7, and various table tennis equipment will be given as awards to first-, second- and third-place finishers. Some of the proceeds will go to Hurricane Harvey relief, and some will support Northern Illinois University’s table tennis team.</p>
<p>Registration closed Thursday, but NIU student and table tennis team member Zach Moy said people can sign up at the door before 11:45 a.m.</p>
<p>Seven bucks too rich for your blood? Those who do not wish to participate in the tournament can play after it’s over. Players will be seeded and grouped at random.</p>
