To recognize National Recovery Court Month, the recovery courts from Catawba and Burke counties took part in the third annual Recovery Court Kickball Tournament recently at New Jerusalem Lutheran Church in Hickory. The Catawba County Veterans’ Treatment Court team and program participants faced off against Cognitive Connection and the Catawba County Recovery Court squad, splitting a pair of contests. The Burke County Recovery Court team emerged as the tournament champion. The annual tournament is used as a team-building exercise and to bring awareness to recovery courts offered in the 36th Prosecutorial District. The participants in the games were cheered on by family members and friends.
