The Barton Community College men's basketball team has added a game this week to its schedule, in part to filling a full thirty-game schedule while having the opportunity to help local community.  The Cougars will take on the K-State Salina Club basketball team in a 7:30 p.m. contest Thursday at the Barton Gym with free admission to fans.  In addition to the free admission, fans are encouraged to bring items to be used for a food bank donation.  Children ages 6-12 are invited to cheer with the Barton Cheer Squad during the game and are to meet the quad on the blue cheer mat in the Kirkman Activity Center at 7:15 p.m.
