Blue-Gold Football Game Next Saturday

1 Comment

I haven’t made much of a secret of the fact that I am always interested in helping out disabled children. When one of our regular readers asked me to post on the upcoming Blue-Gold game, I was almost embarrassed that I hadn’t thought of it myself. I went to one of these games years ago with a teenager with autism. He would likely never get to attend a football game without the opportunity that the Blue-Gold game provides.

The 53rd Annual Blue-Gold All*Star Football Game will be played Saturday, June 21 at the University of Delaware’s football stadium. Delaware’s all-star high school football players from New Castle County (Blue) go up against the best from Kent and Sussex County (Gold). All-star cheerleaders and bands are there too.

Kickoff is at 7pm. Parking opens at 3pm, and kid’s activities begin at 4pm, so the family can make an evening of it. Fireworks after the game, too!
