Harlem Wizards

When it was first announced that Manheim Township would be hosting the Harlem Wizards, we knew we wanted to go!  We had seen them back in 2008 for the first time and they were a blast to watch. The Wizards would take on a team of teachers from the Manheim Township School District known as the Blue Streaks Dream Team as a fundraiser for our school.  During the day, the Wizard players visited our different schools and promoted the game.  It must have worked because it was packed!

It was a great night getting to watch the Wizards do their ball handling drills, amazing dunks, funny routines, and also see some of our teachers play as well.  One cool thing they did was between the 3rd and 4th quarter.  They had all of the students come down on the court and dance with them for a few songs.   There was lots of interaction with the fans and it was so much fun. They also have a promotion going on that if you share a photo or video on their facebook page with #slamtastic, you can win a prize pack.  This is the picture we put up...must have been a tiring night for Air Jamaica.  :)

After the game, the players stayed around so that everyone could get autographs and pictures.  We got a poster to get signed but could only get to 4 of the 6 guys that were there.  Gavin also got his ticket signed by his math teacher, Mr. Seiger. Thank you to the Wizards and Manheim Township for a great night!  Gavin and I start basketball practice in 2 weeks so we were glad to see some new things to try this year :)

Oh, by the way...as if there was any question...the Wizards won! :)
