Buffalo Bills Helping with “Night of Champions”
The Buffalo Bills are continuing to work hard to become champions in the football world, but for one night next week they will already be considered champs. Current and former Bills players will be just a few of the athletes taking part in the ‘Night of Champions’ fundraiser for inner-city youth on next Wednesday, May 23rd.
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’ at the Statler City in downtown Buffalo from 6-10pm.
The event, which helps to raise money to send inner-city kids to summer camp who may otherwise be unable to attend due to financial or other reasons, will be a star-studded affair. The event will include Hall of Famers from the Buffalo Bills, the Buffalo Sabres, the Buffalo Bisons and other sports figures.
The current/former Bills in attendance will be Bills running back Fred Jackson, former 8-time Pro Bowl guard Ruben Brown and Bills Hall of Fame offensive lineman Joe DeLamielleure.
This will be a great night for both the community and Buffalo players, past and present. It is always a plus for any team or athlete to get their players out in the community, especially for an event like this one for a great cause This can be even sweeter for a player like Fred Jackson, who is not only one of the most recognizable players on the team and fan favorites, he also recently signed a four-year contract extension.
The event will feature live music, silent auctions and various raffles. Great food and drinks will be served at food stations around the room.
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. You can find them on Facebook at The Night of Champions or visit their website.
