ROTARY YOUTH EXCHANGE STUDENTS WELCOMED BY CLEVELAND CAVALIERS
Rotary Youth Exchange Students from Northeast Ohio District 6630 and 6650 were welcomed at Quicken Loans Arena Thursday night, February 21, with an exciting Fan Experience Package that included commemorative T-shirts, a half time trip through the tunnel and recognition on center court.
The well-attended, pre-game private reception, with a dinner buffet and raffle, was hosted by The Clevelander Bar & Grill and organized by Past District Governor Stew Buchanan. District Governor Beverly Ghent-Skrzynski assisted in handing out prizes and leading the cheer - GO CAVS! It must have worked because our Cleveland Cavaliers beat the Phoenix Suns 111 to 98.
Rotary Youth Exchange Students cheered, "Cleveland Cavaliers and Cleveland Rock!"
