3/12/24-3/15/24 BMS Newsbytes: News, Updates and Celebrations!

Dear Bernheim Community,

Friday we had the annual Hoops for Heart UK/UL Basketball game.  Though the UK team took some questionable tactics toward the end of the game, with the referee deciding to join the UK team, the Cards took the win again for the 9th time in as many years. Congratulations to the BMS UL Cards team for the win.  UK will take it next year ; CATS, CATS, CATS!!! The beauty of the event is the funds that are raised to support the American Heart Association.  BMS met their goal and we enjoyed hosting Calhoun's Ballers Grant and Rick. Community Contributor in action, making connections with the greater community at large and supporting others in the process.
