BANGOR – Seven years, seven championship games.

That’s the legacy of the Downtown with Rich Kimball team in the annual Wayne’s Wiffle for a Wish wiffleball tournament. The event – created and organized by Wayne Harvey as a fundraiser for the Make A Wish Foundation – marked its 10th year on Aug. 18. It’s a wonderful event that has raised nearly $100,000 for a remarkable cause over the past decade.

But we’re here to talk about the legendary run of Downtown.

BANGOR – Wayne Harvey has spent the last decade trying to help make wishes come true – with wiffle ball.

Harvey – a television personality for WABI here in Bangor – has been at the helm of Wayne’s Wiffle for a Wish, an annual wiffle ball tournament that raises funds for the Make-A-Wish Foundation, for years now. The tournament is about to mark its 10th year, with the latest edition taking place on Saturday, August 18 at Union Street Athletic Field.
