The Smyrna Stars Junior Division Basketball Program will be hosting their 2nd Annual Celebrity All-Star Basketball game with the Harlem Legends (former Harlem Globetrotter players).
The theme of the event is “Take your Dad to the Game – A Father’s Day Celebration”!!! The date of the event is Saturday, June 13, 2009.
Last year’s event was a rousing success, as families and kids of all ages enjoyed watching the entertaining Harlem Legend Players play against several NBA and NFL players that participated in the game, such as former NFL player Mo Lewis, and current NBA players: Jarrett Jack, Royal Ivey, and Javaris Crittenton. We also had Gar Heard and Mario West as celebrity coaches from the NBA.
Proceeds from this fundraiser support The Smyrna Stars Junior Division Basketball Program. The Smyrna Stars is an AAU (Amateur Athletic Union)/ YBOA basketball program that promotes and teaches teamwork, sportsmanship, good conduct, leadership and character values to young men 9-17 years old.
Our players participate in various community service projects across Metro Atlanta as well. For this event, we will sponsor a community school supply drive, asking every attendee that comes to our event to bring a school supply item to the game. We will donate the school supplies collected to several charity organizations to benefit children in need for the upcoming school year!
