Blazersedge Night Update: Radio Edit

I'll be on the MSP on 95.5 The Game Monday morning at 8:20 and part of what we'll be chatting about is Blazersedge Night.  I wanted to get this update within easy reach of any listeners who might check out the site.

In a nutshell our goal is to send 400 area kids who wouldn't otherwise be able to see a Blazer game to the January 25th contest versus the New Orleans Hornets.  We've reserved that many contiguous seats in the Rose Garden for that date and we're asking people to buy the tickets and donate them to the cause.  We're hovering around 230-ish sold at the moment with a couple months to go.  We're getting messages from teachers and principals and organizations around the Portland area who know kids who would love to go so we're going to have no problem distributing these tickets as long as we sell them all.  We don't want to turn anybody away and we need your help.

The cost per seat is $22 with a $5 service fee per order (not per ticket...so if you buy, say, four tickets you pay the fee only once).  That small amount makes an amazing night for a kid who doesn't get many of them.  You can click here to read stories from last year's event.  It makes a huge difference.

Ordering information is below.  Dig deep if you can.
