URCS Midnight Madness

Friday, Nov. 28th is Upper Room Christian School's annual Midnight Madness Varsity vs Alumni games! They action starts at 9:30 pm in our beautiful gym and ends at 12 midnight. This is a time where many of our alumni return for a fun night of basketball and fellowship.

The snack bar will be open and serving hot dogs, hamburgers, snacks and drinks and there will be contests and door prizes given out. The cost for the event is $3 for students and $5 for guests. We are looking forward to seeing many of our former students and also looking forward to the games which are always highly competitive.

7th Annual Hempstead Day

Upper Room Christian School was represented again at this year's annual Hempstead Day. The event is hosted by H.E.V.N. (Helping End Violence Now). There are resource tables for the community, free food and a basketball tournament. Several county legislators come out to show their support and the event features several guest speakers and a gospel concert.

Our varsity boys took second place for the tournament and a great time was had by all in attendance!

Grace and Peace,
Ed
