EHS BASKETBALL IS MORE THAN A GAME

The school basketball teams at Elkmont do more than X's and O's or play against opposing teams.  They also learn about helping others in various charitable causes.  One such opportunity is the Elkmont Angel Tree project. This year the Middle School Boys, JV Boys and Varsity Boys adopted three angels.

The Varsity Boys Basketball team shopping for their Christmas angels this year. 

The Lady Devils participated in a trip to the Birdie Thorton Center bringing some Christmas cheer. The Center serves sixty-six individuals over the age of 21 that have developmental or intellectual disabilities.

We had a blast today! We got to listen to them practice for their Christmas program, and we got to sing with them, too!

We brought them some cookies to eat for lunch and we played a basketball shootout game with some of them in their game room! Overall, it was a great day!
