On Saturday, April 2, 2016, the Harlem Wizards performed at Montclair High School as a fundraiser for Northeast Elementary School. The Harlem Wizards took on the Montclair Knights in a basketball game. The Montclair Knights are made up of Montclair teachers and parents. The game was fun and engaging. There were halftime performances from Hillside Elementary School’s own Drums of Thunder, and there was a mini-basketball game where the players were children from the crowd.
The event was not just Northeast families, but rather felt like a community event. There was even an autograph session with the Harlem Wizards after the game. The stuffy gym did not stop the crowd from cheering, laughing, and having fun. Drums of Thunder was welcomed with applause and a standing ovation after their thundering performance. After the Montclair Knights scored, the crowd would shout out a loud, booming cheer. Overall, it was a great (but very hot!) event.
