Hoops For Kids!

Active 20-30 Club Members:

Active 20-30 Club of Redding was donated over 200 basketball hoops by an inventor that sold his invention to a German company who decided that it would be cheaper to remanufacturer the basketball hoops in Germany rather than ship them overseas. The invention is a portable telescoping basketball hoop that hooks to the hitch on your vehicle. Here’s what we have going on with the backboards. We just did a giveaway of 15 hoops to kids at the Anderson Street Fair. We are giving 40 hoops to The Child Abuse Prevention Program, we gave 5 hoops to a local football league, 15 to the Chico club, 5 to the Wings of Angels and man to other places as well.

We are ramping up for Basketball Fun Day at Alta Mesa Park which is the same place that we did the playground build and the Easter Egg Hunt. We are going to give each child a basketball hoop, a hot dog and a drink along with a basket of fun. This event is guaranteed to be a hit with the kids and parents. We are planning on taking video and posting it on YouTube for the world to see. These hoops made great raffle prizes! If your club want hoops come and get them! Tell other clubs, spread the word. First come, first serve. We just need a couple dollars per hoop for the custom, high quality, rugged, waterproof stickers we had made that say, “Donated by” and our logo.
