8th annual Bravest vs Finest Basketball Game

Henninger High School 600 Robinson St., Syracuse, NY, United States

The Syracuse Parks Conservancy will host the 8th Annual “Bravest vs. Finest” basketball game at 7 p.m. Wednesday, Oct. 14, at Henninger High School. This friendly competition pits players from the Syracuse Police Department (the Finest) against players from the Syracuse Fire Department (the Bravest). Basketball isn’t the way they make their living, but these “amateurs” fight hard to come out on top. The public is invited to join in for this suspense filled contest, and root for the team of your choice. There is no charge for admission; however voluntary donations may be made to the Syracuse Parks Conservancy. Money raised through the support of various game sponsors will help the Conservancy buy flags for the Sheridan First Responder's Park in Eastwood, replenish a fund for environmental grants and help with SPC rent and operating expenses.
