AKRON – The Tippecanoe Valley School Corp.’s Valley Hometown Fund is hosting the second annual alumni basketball game. The goal of raising money at this event is for grant-making for teachers and community organization projects.

The Valley Hometown Fund will host two basketball games in the Tippecanoe Valley High School gymnasium on March 8. The first game will begin at 6:30 p.m. Featured teams are made up of many Valley standout players from 1998-2008 and another team of players prior to 1998. Tippecanoe Valley is looking for a few more players to round out the teams. If interested, contact Darren Parker at darren@splendorboats.com.
Rita Price from WRSW-FM in Warsaw will be the emcee for the night. Local sports journalists/broadcasters Val Tsoutsouris (Rochester Sentinel) and Tim Keaffaber (WRSW-FM) will be the presenters for player of the game awards.
Concessions available in the commons area will include hot dogs and ice cream from The Igloo Ice Cream Shop in Silver Lake.
