CREATE YOUR TEAM

TEAM SIZE: 5 TO 15 PEOPLE PER TEAM

This is your opportunity to wear a different hat for the evening and make a difference in the lives of local children while having a blast doing it! All proceeds to benefit The Historic Avenue Foundation, a holistic community revitalization initiative in the “Avenue” community. The song selection is your choice, but please use the clean version of your team’s choice in music—no explicit lyrics— and keep song length under 4 minutes.
