Basketball Court "Official First Shot"


We had a great time this past Tuesday with the residents of Village Oaks!  After completing the renovation to the basketball court, we held an "Official First Shot" ceremony to usher in the new court.

We gave each kid from the Kids Club a basketball and let them loose to shoot baskets and run around.  Within 15 minutes, residents young and old had joined us on the court.  From grandfathers who hadn't shot a basketball in years to young men who are growing up too fast: we all enjoyed being kids for an hour.

At the end of our time, we gathered about 10 kids from the Kids Club around one of the baskets for the "official first shot."  At the count of 3, the kids shot their basketball at the same time and helped the Village Oaks community welcome the new court.  See the pictures below!
