Sports legend Dick Vitale is heading to Pontiac Thursday, September 7, to help raise money for his V Foundation and the Basketball Museum of Illinois, to be located in Pontiac.
Vitale was a guest on WJBC with Marc Strauss to talk about his career and the fundraiser.
“People, come on out. Man, you’ll be helping us battle cancer for kids plus you’ll be raising dollars to have a beautiful, beautiful museum near a basketball showpiece,” Vitale said.
To purchase tickets for the 4:30 event at the Pontiac Elks Club, contact Mark Myre by emailing mmyre1@gmail.com or call 815-258-6201. There will be surprise guests, a meet and greet with Vitale, music from the PTHS music department and a live auction.
