Come out and support the Josh Gibson Foundation!

11 03 2009

This Friday, the Bud Light Hockey Challenge Championship will benefit a great cause: the Josh Gibson Foundation.

The Josh Gibson Foundation

Sometimes called “the Black Babe Ruth” and considered by many to be the greatest Negro League baseball player, Josh Gibson played for the Pittsburgh Crawfords and the Homestead Grays. The Josh Gibson Foundation was established in 1994 with the goal of establishing a history and learning center in Homestead, PA to reach out to the families and youth of the community on which Josh Gibson left his mark. Currently, the Foundation runs and supports education programs within the City of Pittsburgh including academic tutoring and life skills training, motivational programs, and volunteer tutoring programs.

Come on out to the Town Tavern this Friday to have some fun and help a great cause!
