Sat Dec 5: Filipino Hoops and Heritage Night Hosted By Raymond Townsend

Sunday, November 22, 2009



I've posted up about this event in the past and even though I think this is going to be a great event - and one you should definitely get out too especially if you're a hoops fan - I'm just greatly honored that a man like Raymond Townsend even knows who I am and sent something my way on this.

Clear your calendars:

This unique event will be hosted by Raymond Townsend, the first and only Filipino to play in the NBA. Raymond Townsend was drafted in the 1st round of the 1978 NBA Draft by the Golden St. Warriors, and played four seasons for the Warriors and the Indiana Pacers. He also played four seasons at UCLA and was a member of the 1975 UCLA Basketball National Champions under legendary Coach John Wooden.

This historic cultural event will celebrate our unique and rich Filipino heritage, raise funds for disaster relief in the Philippines, promote and support our young Filipino entertainers to “Follow Their Dreams”, and enjoy our favorite sport, NBA Basketball. This will truly be a wonderful evening full of fun, entertainment, and basketball.
