Powder Puff game to fund scholarship

FORT WALTON BEACH - The First Annual Paula Buchanan Powder Puff Game will be held at 7 p.m. on Friday at Etheridge Stadium.
   
The game will raise money for the Paula Buchanan Scholarship and pits Choctawhatchee High School's freshman and sophomore girls against junior and senior girls.
   
Buchanan taught in Okaloosa County for more than a decade before she died last October after a two-year battle with breast cancer. The scholarship established in her name will provide money for students who have chosen education as their college major.
 
Proceeds from the game will also fund the Paula Buchanan Laugh Library in the Cancer Center of Fort Walton Beach Medical Center. The library offers a selection of comedies and up-beat movies for patients to watch during their treatment.
