The Experience

This event will be the ultimate summer experience! We will be elevating the fun for guests with a unique and engaging basketball tournament located in one of Utica’s historic parks. Attendees will be instantly immersed in a community block party, the smells and sounds of neighborhood food as well as the excitement of the crowd as the tournament goes on.

As the vibrant beats flow from our talented DJ, guests will groove to the rhythm, connecting with friends, both old and new. With delicious street food to savor and amazing beverages to sip on, everyone will be immersed in the lively spirit of the block party, dancing and letting loose.

The DJ stops the music and introduces the two contenders. They walk onto the court as the crowd roars in anticipation. After the referee tosses the coin and hands off the ball, the air is tense with silence as everyone leans in to see the start of the match-up. The ball hits the ground with the first bounce, the DJ starts the music and the crowd starts to cheer on their friends as the game begins.

This is just a moment from what will be a memorable day for the community, filled with good food and drinks, laughs, comradery, an overall sense of happiness and community.
