Dancers Perform

Dancers from the Sandy Johnson School of Dance, (front row) Kylie McKiernan; (row 2) Emily Baumgarner, Brielle Budd, Thea Peruzzi, Leigha Nelson, Allison Preston, Bree Frair; (back) Makayla Alcorn, Reagan Hutton and Morgan Dowell,  strike a pose for the R-A camera.   The group  will perform at the annual Night of Games to be held Tuesday, March 31 at the  Port Allegany High School Gymnasium beginning at 6 p.m.  Doors will open at 5:30 p.m.  Admission is $3.  Students and staff who are participating may attend free of charge.

An exciting evening event is being planned by the PAHS Basketball Boosters.  In addition to the performances by the Sandy Johnson School of Dance students,  the return of the Elementary Gym Show, spearheaded by Mike Nasto and Annamaria Myers, is sure to entertain.  The traditional volleyball and basketball games starring the seniors as they take on the faculty (and friends) will highlight the event.  

The Night of Games is a major fundraiser for the Basketball Boosters.  The funds raised provide Senior Nights for the Gator Guys and Lady Gators, senior gifts, coaches gifts and the annual basketball banquets.  A donation of $500 is given to each varsity basketball coach (boys and girls) for their summer programs each year.  As seen on the pages of the Reporter Argus earlier this year, the cheerleaders received new pom-poms from the Basketball Boosters.  Pam Fischer Photo
