Portage Football, P.E.A.K. Program to Welcome Harlem Wizards

Portage-FootballThe Portage High School Football team in partnership with the Portage Township Schools’ P.E.A.K. Program, are bringing the 50 Years of Wizardry Worldwide Tour starring the Harlem Wizards and the Portage P.E.A.K. Players to the Portage High School Gymnasium on December 8, 2012 at 7:00 (doors open at 6:00 pm).

During the action packed two hours of family fun for the entire community, fans will experience a magical display of tricks, coordinated ball handling, fancy passing and aerodynamic athleticism combined with high-energy comedy and audience interaction. The experience can only be summed up in two words: Awe-Inspiring!

The Highlight of the evening will feature a basketball game against our very own Portage P.E.A.K. Players. Members include representatives from each of the Ten Portage Township Schools, football coaching staff, Community leaders and School Board members.

The Portage Township School Board’s partnership in this second year event hopes to bring awareness of the P.E.A.K. Program to the Portage Community. P.E.A.K. (Portage Elevates Assets in Kids) is a program that stresses 40 developmental assets that are tools our kids need to succeed. Parents, teachers, coaches, community members and leaders have the power to bring these positive experiences into the lives of our youth. The assets represent common sense priorities for helping youth grow up healthy and successful.

Proceeds from the event will benefit the PFND Club, Inc. the newly organized 501(3)c not-for-profit Parent Booster Organization– raising funds for the Portage High School Football program.
