Buffalo Bills Star Fred Jackson, Hall of Famer Joe DeLamielleure,
Bills Legend Ruben Brown, Highlight “Night of Champions” Event
to Benefit Buffalo’s Inner - City Kids @ Summer Camp
The Butler Mitchell Alumni Association, who has been helping kids since 1955, will be
sponsoring the 2nd Annual City Kids @ Summer Camp “Night of Champions” fundraising bash
on Wednesday, May 23, 2012 at the Statler City in downtown Buffalo from 6pm-10pm.
The star studded event will directly support camper funding to provide Buffalo inner-city kids with an outdoor adventure of a lifetime, which they may otherwise be unable to attend for financial or other reasons. Proceeds from the Night of Champions will give these children the opportunity to enjoy an atmosphere in a country setting that is far different from the asphalt and influences of the city streets.
The “NIGHT OF CHAMPIONS” bash will feature the support and appearance of several local and national sports celebrities including Hall of Famers from the Buffalo Bills, the Buffalo Sabres, the Buffalo Bisons and other sports figures.
The event will feature live music, silent auctions and various raffles. Great food and drinks will be served at food stations around the room.
Buffalo City Court Judge Craig Hannah is the co- chairman of the Camp and over the years, Judge Hannah has spent the entire week at the camp mentoring and serving these children along with eight Buffalo Police officers, members of the Erie County Sheriffs Mounted Division and Butler Alumni members. The outdoor adventure camp called Camp Weona, is owned and operated by the YMCA. The positive effect of City Kids @ Summer Camp has been life changing for these children and their families.
Former Buffalo Mayor Tony Masiello and Michelle Brown, wife of Buffalo Mayor Byron Brown are this year’s Co- Chairs. Honorary Chairpersons include Buffalo Bills star running back Fred Jackson, Buffalo Bills Hall of Famer Joe DeLamielleure and Buffalo Bills Legend Ruben Brown.
The Night of Champions is open to the public. Tickets are only $50 and can be purchased by calling JRC Promotions at 716-694-7867. All major credit cards accepted. Find us on facebook at The Night of Champions or visit our website at www.citykidssummercamp.com.
Good luck Mario Williams. We hope you stick around to join the Alumni some day in the very distant future!
