Nipmuc Regional High School Juniors Evan Offord, Jack Gallagher, and Tyler Costello are running a charity girls basketball AAU tournament this weekend. All proceeds will go towards the American Cancer Society. They chose the American Cancer Society because they wish to join the American Cancer Society and the world in finding a cure for cancer, hoping to ease the pain millions of Americans go through every day.
In addition to raising funds for a great charity the event will fulfill their DECA community project. DECA is a business-oriented national organization which provides its members with an idea of how things work in the world of business and finance. DECA prepares students to be emerging leaders and entrepreneurs in marketing, finance, hospitality and management.
The tournaments will be taking place at Clough Elementary School in Mendon and Memorial Elementary on Saturday November 16 and Sunday November 17.
If you would like to support Evan, Tyler, and Jack in their effort to raise funds for the American Cancer Society drop by one of the tournaments as a spectator and cheer on the girls/booys teams while they battle it out on the basketball court. There is a $5 admission fee for spectators.
