Food and drinks will be sold at a concession stand tonight and proceeds go to the PTO.

“The Wizards are quite a basketball team,” Brandi Rynders said. “They were visiting schools this morning and doing local assemblies. They kept the kids interested and they had a great time at our schools.”

The Greenfield PTO funds items for teachers and extras in the classrooms.

Rynders laughed and said the teachers and principals are worried about being beaten on the court and exhausted. She encouraged area residents to attend tonight and support the Greenfield PTO.
