On Saturday, Aug. 7, one of Kosmo's favorite summer events involving one of his favorite people will take place.
Every year, Pontiac High School basketball and football announcer Ray Wright holds a "JAMM Session," with proceeds benefiting the afterschool program Wright founded, the "JAMM Project."
For those who don't know what the "JAMM Project" is, it stands for "Just Aim, Motivate and Move" and is an afterschool program that provides academic tutoring and counseling to kids who have been victims of abuse.
Such programs keep kids off of streets and train them to upstanding citizens in the community, so the cause is one to rally behind.
Not only that, but Wright is truly a class act who is all about the kids, so Kosmo hopes people come out and support the event.
It'll be from 3 to 6 p.m. at Birmingham Detroit Country Day High School. There will be a celebrity basketball game between Country Day Alumni and the JAMM All-Stars and various awards presentations, including to recently retired Pontiac AD Tarlton Small.
Tickets are $10 for adults, no doubt an affordable afternoon and evening of entertainment that will also support a great cause and a great man.
