OFA Boys Varsity Basketball team is heading to Atlanta

Dear Editor,

In November of 2017, the OFA Boys Varsity Basketball team will be embarking on a season-opening excursion to Atlanta. There they will be participating in the first annual Craig Sager Memorial Basketball Tournament. Craig Sager is the former NBA announcer / reporter who recently died from Leukemia. Sager was a beloved figure in both the Atlanta area and throughout the nation. OFA Basketball looks forward to honoring his legacy.

In order to pay for this trip the team is currently in the middle of a fundraising campaign. On behalf of OFA Boys Basketball and OFA Athletics we would like to thank the following for their generosity: Steve and Cheryl May, Ike and Julie Loveless, Lee and Heidi Sibley, and the many other donors who have helped us get halfway to our projected target. We would also like to thank all the parents, players, and coaches who have given so much time and energy to date. 

We are working on other fundraising events as well – and hope to secure the necessary funding by the end of August. We will be playing three games during the weekend and the first few weekdays prior to Thanksgiving 2017. 

If you would like to help, please reach out to Laura Wasyln (Booster Club representative) at lawasyln@gmail.com. Checks can be made out to “OFA Sports Booster Club” and sent to OFA Sports Boosters, c/o Owego Free Academy, 1 Sheldon Guile Blvd., Owego, N.Y. 13827.

Sincerely,

Chris Evans

Owego, N.Y.
