In an effort to nurture and maintain friendships, Basketball Buddies Founder/Coach organizes several social opportunities throughout the calendar year for the Buddies. Families and Friends are ALWAYS encouraged and welcomed to join in on the fun! During the 8 week program, they have a Halloween Tailgating Party, a successful FUNdraiser Night at Texas Roadhouse Restaurant, as well as an End Of The Season Award Celebration. Every May, they march in the Boylston Memorial Day Parade and have gotten together on many occasions for Social Outings (Holy Cross Games, Big Apple Circus, local plays, area restaurants, private pool parties and home cookouts to name a few).
