We are so excited to welcome everyone for the Andrew Niblock Basketball Challenge. A few notes for today as we have an incredibly busy campus
Game: The games will take place in the Athletic Center, on our Old Church Road Campus. All spectators are to view from the bleachers.
Arrival: The best time to arrive on campus is between 3:05 pm and 3:20pm. This is after our first school wide dismissal, and before our second school wide dismissal. If you fall outside of the window, it is best to enter from our Old Church Road entrance, park there, and walk down to the gyms. Please note, our third and final dismissal begins at 4pm, which will create heavy delays as well, so its is best to arrive after 4:20pm for the late games.

About Andrew Niblock
Andrew has touched every part of our community, but as he will tell you, one of his truest loves and accomplishments, is the imprint he has made on the GCDS basketball culture. We hope during these two days, the children compete hard, and we are able to raise awareness for ALS and money to research treatments and a cure. Below you will find the logistics of the event and some information to share with your communities regarding ALS.
