The Rotary Club of South Fort Myers is pleased to announce the 2013 football players and cheerleaders who have been selected to represent their schools in the 25th Annual John Carrigan Rotary South All-Star Classic this December.
These outstanding seniors are chosen by a committee made up of coaches and athletic directors from participating high schools. This year’s All-Star game which is an annual tradition going back 25 years – is set for 7:30pm on Wednesday, December 11th at Fort Myers High School. Tickets are $5 per person at the gate, and parking is $5 per car (includes a game program). The Miami Dolphins will once again be supporting this event by decorating the stadium and being represented at the event by Dolphins’ alum and staff.
The All-Stars will receive additional recognition at a banquet to be held at Harborside Convention Center on Monday, December 9th where NFL celebrity, former Tampa Bay Buccaneer Earnest Graham will be the keynote speaker. Graham is also an alumni of the All-Star game, having represented Mariner High School in 1997. He will share an inspirational message about his experiences in the All-Star Classic, with the Florida Gators as well as many years with the Bucs. The banquet is open to the public. General admission tickets are $75 per person, or reserved tables of 8 are available for $500.
In addition, the All-Stars will volunteer at a youth football clinic presented by the Miami Dolphins at Fort Myers High School the evening of Tuesday, December 10th. The clinic is free and open to boys and girls, ages 6-14.
Proceeds from each year’s All-Star Classic go to fund charitable giving to worthy causes in our local community by the Rotary Club of Fort Myers South. These events would not be possible without our sponsors, who include title sponsor AutoNation Toyota Fort Myers, MVP sponsor Telebrands, and many other fine companies.
