Letter: Encourage residents, businesses to help support basketball broadcasts

Posted at 7:39 pm December 26, 2014
By Oak Ridge Today Letters Leave a Comment

Letter to supporters of the Oak Ridge community and Oak Ridge High School basketball:

We are writing this letter to encourage any Oak Ridge basketball supporters and supporters of the community in general to consider a contribution to help get the games on the radio.

The Oak Ridge boys’ team—state runner-up in March and coached by Aaron Green—is off to a school record 14-0 start and is an exciting and fun TEAM to watch play.

The girls’ team (9-5) is a young team, but they play an exciting style and are improving each and every day.

There is a segment of the Oak Ridge population who cannot make it to games and would like to listen to the games and follow these teams. If we can get a group of people or businesses who would be willing to make a donation, we can get these games back on the radio and Channel 15.

If you would be interested in this opportunity, please contact David Clary at (865) 310-7207. Both of these teams work very hard to represent this community and would really appreciate your support.

Coach Aaron Green

Coach David Scott
