The Harlem Globe Travelers, a spin-off of the original Harlem Globetrotters, will be playing an exhibition basketball game at the Panthers Den at Augusta High School on Friday, March 26, at 7 p.m.

The founder of the Globe Travelers, Lamont "Show Boat" Robinson, has toured more than 20 years in professional basketball, and 12 of those years were with the Harlem Roadkings. He was inspired by former Globetrotters great Meadowlark Lemon.

In addition to the game against the Augusta All Stars, Robinson will be speaking to the young people in attendance about the importance of family and saying no to drugs.

Doors will open at 6 p.m., and tickets are available from any Panthers player or coach for $8. Tickets will also be available at the door for $10, and all proceeds will benefit the Augusta Athletic Department. For more information, contact Robin Kelsch or Mary Zeigler at (606) 756-2105.
