Basketball Game

It was such an incredible night! We had a great game, tons of fans, showcased our kids’ talents and demonstrated excellent sportsmanship. We raised $950 for the Lamb Center. Thank you to Mr. Gaddy who organized every detail of the event beginning in August! Thanks to our outstanding players who always work and play as team modeling the results of playing with heart, practice, effort and great sportsmanship. Thanks to our cheerleaders and many, many fans who rocked the spirit and stadium. Thanks to Mr. Reeve for his wisdom, energy and blessings for the team. Thanks to Mr. Pietzman and Ms. Levis for announcing and score keeping and finally to Mrs. Avery for bringing joy to so many kids by rockin' the dance moves as Musty the Mustang! I sent a note to the Providence staff thanking them for a great game, and they were very positive about the whole event and appreciated the competition and school spirit!
