The Longest Day is all about love. Love for all those affected by Alzheimers disease. On Saturday January 13th
team up with the Alzheimers Association Fort Recovery Schools and
Worthington Kilbourne Schools for a great cause and enjoy the sport that

Alzheimers. Together, we will raise funds and awareness for care and
support while advancing research toward the first survivor of
Alzheimers.
Admission at the boys basketball game will be free of
charge. However donations will be accepted at the gate in honor of Al
Souder and the Souder familys Longest Day Benefit. In addition to the
Alzheimers benefit, we will be honoring Al Souder in between the JV and
