WOODLAND HILLS FOUNDATION’S H.U.G.S.
PRESENTS: THE HARLEM WIZARDS
T
he Harlem Wizards, the most interactive, fun,
community basketball event in the world is coming!
The world-famous Harlem Wizards will visit
Woodland Hills High School on Wednesday, March
18th at 6:30 pm (doors open at 5:30 pm) for an evening
of great fun and fundraising. The Wizards will play a game
against the Wolverine Dream Team, a team of Woodland Hills
teachers and staff. The event is a fundraiser for HUGS, the
volunteer arm of the Woodland Hills Foundation.
The energy at a Wizards game is electric. The laughter
is infectious. The dunks are rim-rattling, high-flying and
awe-inspiring. The hoop artistry, ball-handling, tricks and
teamwork are mesmerizing.
What really takes it to another level is the hometown
participation from the kids on court experiences, to
the teachers and staff who take on the Wizards as the
“hometown heroes”. Besides cheering for their teachers, the
kids are involved all night long. They will all have a chance to
get on the court!
Pre-game, any child or teen with a Wizards jersey
can warm-up with the Wizards! Throughout the game,
audience members will be asked to volunteer in different
contests and acts. And the end of night final moments
includes an invitation to all students to come onto the
court for a dance celebration with the Wizards.
The experience at a Wizards game is an evening of
pure fun and excitement for the community and the
school to come together. The event will feature a variety
of fun interactive extras to complement the Wizards’
dazzling demonstration of hoops artistry: Pregame “Wiz
Kids” warm-up, contests, comedy, awesome slam dunks,
audience participation, merchandise giveaways, and more.
The game will conclude with the Wizards’ signature dance
celebration that will have the parents on their feet and the
kids moving to the beat.
Founded in 1962, the Wizards have played over 15,000

also played in over 25 foreign countries on six continents.
