Battle for the Bridge raises $5,000 for South High Marathon Dance recipients!

Glens Falls City School District is proud to announce that GF Nation raised a whopping $5,000 to benefit our neighbors and organizations being helped by the 2024 South High Marathon Dance through the Battle for the Bridge charity basketball game!

What a crowd of fans and team members at the Battle for the Bridge! From the faculty players, to the cheerleaders, to the volunteers who made it all possible, it was truly awesome to see so much community spirit on Saturday in the GFHS gym. Special thanks to Rob Amberger, Jen Chapman, Tracy Capozucca, Danielle Fish, Shannon McKeighan, Judy Caimano, Jenine Klippel, Betty Brown, and Steve Zurlo for their leadership of this great event!
