Posted on February 15, 2012 by jgdurbin

Don’t forget to mark your calendars for the End of Season Celebration: Sunday March 4th.  It will be a great celebration of another exciting season of Upward Basketball at Providence Presbyterian Church.  We have another outstanding entertainer, Jesse the Juggler, scheduled to headline the celebration.

It will be a packed house!  Plan to come early, enjoy live music provided by the Providence Praise Band (4pm), participate in the Celebration (430pm), and stay for a light dinner (at conclusion of the celebration) including Upward Sports gifts for all Upward Basketball players.

Team Picture Day a Success!

Posted on February 12, 2012 by jgdurbin

Thank you parents for bringing your children early to Providence Upward Basketball this past Saturday.  The pictures went off very smoothly and I, for one, am excited to see the final results!

An extra special thank you to Rob Faber for his donated services!  This is his third year taking team pictures for us and he has the process down to a science!

Your coach will send you a PDF file that contains links to all of the action shots we have received for the season to date, and a link that will contain the team photos once they are processed.

If you have taken pictures this season and wish to share the results, have trouble accessing the links to download photos from this season, or have any other general Providence Upward Basketball picture questions please contact us at Pictures@ProvidenceUpward.org.
