Athletes appreciative

On Monday, the United Way of West Central Mississippi hosted the Harlem Ambassadors professional show basketball team for a night of high-flying slam dunks, hilarious comedy and feel-good family entertainment.

The Harlem Ambassadors would like to extend a special thank you to event organizers Lauren Garrick and Barbara Tolliver who planned and promoted the game. The United Way All-Stars proved to be an energetic and challenging team, and we thank all of the players for their good sportsmanship. The event would not have been possible without the support and generosity of local community sponsors, the United Way and the event volunteers.

The Harlem Ambassadors thank the community of Vicksburg for its warm hospitality and look forward to returning!
