ABA Salutes NBC
October 29, 2005 - American Basketball Association (ABA)
Southern California Surf News Release
Indianapolis, IN. The American Basketball Association (ABA) salutes NBC and its Three Wishes television program for the outstanding tribute to the military this past Friday night. The show honored three US Marines and one US Army family that served in Iraq; it was heartwarming and touching - and the recipients of the three homes and dream wedding - were certainly deserving of having their wishes fulfilled. Great job CBS, Three Wishes, Amy Grant - and of course, our military.
The ABA recently announced its Salute program paying tribute to our military and their families for the sacrifices they make to defend our freedom with a new line of merchandise called Salute (www.abasalute.com). With the purchase of a variety of apparel, funds are being raised to provide scholarships for our military and their families. According to Jennifer Hester, ABA Salute Coordinator, "We sold some merchandise already and raised some funds. We are on our way - and hope that everyone will order something so that we can really make an impact. It's easy to do. It's important. And it is our way of saying Thank You."

Note: OurSports Central no longer actively covers the American Basketball Association (ABA) as a professional league due in part to its inability to publish and play a schedule and the transitory nature of many of its teams.
