A tailgate party, originally set for this afternoon to help kick off U.S. Cellular’s Calling All Communities campaign has been pushed back until Friday.

A schedule will be announced soon, organizers said.

U.S. Cellular is providing up to $150,000 to the school that receives the most votes. Seventeen others will receive $50,000.

The three Allen County school districts — Iola USD 257, Humboldt USD 258 and Marmaton Valley USD 256 — have agreed to pool their efforts and split any possible winnings equally. Thus, a vote for Iola Middle School is considered a vote for all three districts.

Votes can be cast by picking up entry codes at the U.S. Cellular office at 700 N. State St.

Unlike last year, each voter may cast only one vote.
