EXECUTIVE SUMMARY:
On behalf of the
African American Ethnic Sports Hall of Fame we invite you to join us at
our “Annual Induction Ceremony” held this year at the Historic
Alhambra Ballroom 2116 Adam Clayton Powell Boulevard on Saturday, July 8,
2006. The event begins at 6:30 PM with the “VIP Reception
with the Stars” and is a Black Tie event.
This is an
opportunity to meet and witness some of the greatest athletes ever, as
they are inducted into the Hall of Fame. This event will allow us to
recapture, remember and honor some great athletes and living legends, and
you are invited to participate. You have the unprecedented opportunity to
witness the induction of the class of 2006, while demonstrating a sense of
community and helping make dreams come true for our academic achievers.
The AAESHOF is a
501 (c) (3) nonprofit organization, and is dedicated to the development of
opportunities for young, less fortunate people to gain exposure to
positive aspects of life. This is our major Hall of Fame scholarship
fund-raiser for students to attend Historically Black Colleges and
Universities. It helps students from economically challenged backgrounds
fund their education through our “Academia
Achievers Award Program” (AAA!!!)
The event will be broadcast
on WSRN radio web cast and streamed on the Internet. Negotiations are in
the process for televising the event. It will be video taped for
presentation onto the Internet by Pay2ViewTV.com. National, International
and local print media, television and radio will be represented and
interviews will be conducted on a regular basis, prior to and during the
event.
