Charity Basketball Game
Staff from Buffalo Grove and John Hersey High Schools will participate in the 4th Annual "Border War" Basketball Charity Classic at Hersey.
"The Border War," a game between the two neighboring District 214 friendly rival schools, has raised nearly $10,000 the past three years for local Special Olympians. The students will also host a variety of other activities that evening, leading up to the suburban cross-town game.
The game is open to the public; tickets are $5 and fans can purchase team T-shirts for $8 to support their respective schools. When purchasing both a T-shirt and a ticket for $10, all proceeds will go to Special Olympics. For more information, contact the Student Activity offices of either Buffalo Grove (847-718-4019) or Hersey (847-718-4819).
