Harlem Globetrotters and Fun Spot Team Up for Kids

ORLANDO, Fla. - Fun Spot America and the world-famous Harlem Globetrotters are teaming up for disadvantaged youth.

On Wednesday, February 26, starting at 3:00 p.m., eighteen kids from foster homes will have the once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to interact with a Harlem Globetrotter in-person and ride free of charge at Fun Spot America, located on International Drive. Fun Spot will provide the kids free unlimited armbands for rides as well as pizza & drinks.

“Fun Spot always look for ways to give back to the community. These kids will get the chance to meet a celebrity, eat pizza, ride roller coasters and go-karts... that’s HUGE!” states Television Spokesperson John Arie Jr.
