This will be our second annual basketball tournament to honor my late husband, Coach Kenny Yates. Kenny loved the game of basketball, whether coaching the game or watching his players play from the sidelines. He enjoyed hearing the accomplishments of his many players on the court and in the classroom. Many played collegiately and a few became professional players.
CPR demonstrations will take place. We will raise funds for the In a Heartbeat foundation and the Opportunity for Youth College Scholarship fund. We currently have four college students who are recipients of the Opportunity for Youth Academic Scholarship.
