Hoops tourney raises money for autistic children
Almost 50 boys 4 to 11 years old, turned out for Brett’s three-on-three basketball tournament, to raise money for the North Star Foundation, a non-profit organization out of Storrs that trains and places assistance dogs with autistic children. The tournament was held in Brett’s driveway, as well as two other driveways on Brett’s street in Riverside. Sponsors for the tournament included Chillybear, Upper Crust Bagels of Old Greenwich, Garden Catering of Old Greenwich, Ed Clarke Trophies, and the Burton Family/University of Connecticut. With the help of his friends, Brett raised about $2,200 for North Star in the name of Seth Whynot, 13, of Maine.
