Harlem Ambassadors Tour Coming to Tulsa
The internationally-acclaimed Harlem Ambassadors will be visiting Sand
Springs for a game at Charles Page High School basketball court on January
30, 2011 at 4:00pm.
The Harlem Ambassadors offer a unique brand of Harlem-style basketball,
featuring high-flying slam dunks, dazzling ball-handling tricks and
hilarious comedy routines.
The Ambassadors feature non-stop laughs and deliver a positive message for
kids wherever the Ambassadors play. “At our shows, we want the kids to
know that they’re part of our team too,” Coach Ladè Majic said. “We invite
as many kids as we can to come sit on the bench, have a front row seat
during the show, and get involved in all of the fun stuff we do.”
The Ambassadors set themselves apart from other “Harlem-style” basketball
teams by working with local not-for-profit and service organizations and
holding Harlem Ambassadors shows as community fundraising events. For the
Sand Springs event the Ambassadors have partnered with Tulsa Habitat for
Humanity’s Youth United to help raise funds to sponsor a home for a
low-income family.
The Ambassadors have worked extensively with organizations such as Habitat
for Humanity, Boys & Girls Clubs, Big Brothers Big Sisters and American
Red Cross as well as Rotary, Lions and Kiwanis clubs in communities
throughout the U.S., and perform more than 200 shows a year. Those shows
have helped raise millions of dollars – an accomplishment of which
Ambassadors President Dale Moss is very proud.
“It feels good to be able to provide quality entertainment and create
memories that the fans will take with them,” Moss explained. “We’re able
to give even more when we can help provide funding for a Habitat for
Humanity house or new computers for the school library, and that feels
great.”
Tickets are on sale now. Call Jamie Cox at 592-4224 ext. 205 or stop by
the Habitat for Humanity office at 6235 E 13th St.
