Just wanted to pass on some info about a charity event taking place on Monday since some of the proceeds go to benefit Geno's Cancer Team.

"Branford Plays for the Cure" will be held on May 17 beginning at 6:45 p.m. at Branford High School. with games featuring personalities from WTNH, the Branford police and fire departments and teams of faculty and students from Branford schools.

UConn coach Geno Auriemma has been invited to appear, something he did last year, but with the Huskies being honored at the White House earlier that day, I believe it's rather unlikely he will be back in time to make an appearance.

Donations are $5. for adults and $3. for children. Advance tickets are available at the Branford Community House. Tickets will go on sale at 6 p.m. at the Branford High gym.

Speaking of the White House trip, I believe more complete details about when the ceremony will be held will be coming out later today.
