Run Forrest, Run! ~ Battle Of The Heroes
The 3rd Annual Battle Of The Heroes flag football game took place on Saturday at Raider Stadium in Mt. Airy. The Habersham County Firefighters racked up another win against the Habersham County Sheriff’s Office. Final score 32-12.
Battle Of The Heroes is a fundraiser for the Easton Foundation which provides programs and scholarships to local youth. The foundation was established in memory of Easton Singleton, a 17-year old Habersham Central High School football player who was killed in a car wreck on April 26, 2012.
The fundraiser took on added meaning this year as it was the third anniversary of Easton’s death and the first Battle Of The Heroes held since Easton’s father died. 45-year old Steve Singleton was a strong supporter of the foundation. He was among three people killed in a domestic shooting in Clarkesville in February.
