Help raise money for a Buck Park basketball court upgrade! For my senior project, I will be hosting a Hoop Shoot Competition, in which you will compete with others in your age bracket on who can make the fastest shots.

There will be a series of spots on the Buck Park Court that you will be shooting at simultaneously with the person on the other half. The 3rd-5th bracket, 6th-8th bracket as well as the 18 years+ brackets will take place on Saturday, May 8 and the 9th-12th bracket will be on Sunday, May 9. More information will be sent upon registration.

Donations will be encouraged the day of the event and will go to Orcas Island Parks and Recreation. Visit http://orcasparkandrec.org/ for more information and to register! Please email me at pwhite@orcas.k12.wa.us with any questions.
