To most of the world, we're just the Ä¢¹½ÊÓÆµ Alumni Association. But among our members, we're known as "The Backboard." Why? Because when it comes to basketball, they know they can bank on us. Every year the Ä¢¹½ÊÓÆµAA comes through with discounts to our Husky Hoops Jump Starts—the popular pre-game parties at the Don James Center—and special access to Member Recognition Nights at Husky Basketball. And don't forget Husky Night with the Portland Trail Blazers, featuring a unique opportunity for members to rub elbows with Brandon Roy.
This year's Husky Hoops Jump Starts will take place before the Stanford game on Jan. 8 and the Arizona State game on Feb. 26. For only $20 ($25 for non-members) you'll get good food, beer, wine and soft drinks, chalk talks by the men's basketball coaches and a live performance by the Husky Band and the Cheer Squad. From there, it's a short walk to Hec Ed for the games. The Stanford game is also Member Recognition Night at Husky Basketball. We've reserved a block of 100 tickets to the sold-out game, and will make them available to members through our Web site in early January. The women's game against Stanford on Feb. 8 is a Member Recognition game, too. Ä¢¹½ÊÓÆµAA members who purchase their tickets through our Web site will get them at a discount. Both Member Recognition games will feature free food and other fun giveaways for Ä¢¹½ÊÓÆµAA card-carriers.
And come to Portland with the Ä¢¹½ÊÓÆµAA on Feb. 20 for Husky Night with the Trail Blazers. Cheer Brandon Roy and his talented teammates as they battle the Atlanta Hawks. The evening will include a pre-game dinner and a special post-game event with Roy. Five lucky Ä¢¹½ÊÓÆµAA members will be selected to have their picture taken at center court with the NBA All-Star and former Husky standout. What's more, the first seven people who purchase a Ä¢¹½ÊÓÆµAA membership in conjunction with the event will receive a copy of Columns magazine signed by B-Roy himself.
