**Harlem Wizards to Perform in Salisbury on November 10**

James "Road Runner" Tyndall of the Harlem Wizards visited four schools in Wicomico County this week to promote an upcoming basketball game scheduled for November 10 in Salisbury. The schools included Fruitland Primary, Delmar Elementary, Pemberton Elementary, and West Salisbury Elementary.

The game will take place at James M. Bennett High School at 3 p.m. and is sponsored by the Salisbury Sunrise Rotary Club. The Harlem Wizards, known for their interactive and entertaining style of basketball, will face off against a team of local educators and community leaders dubbed the Sunrise Supersonics.

Proceeds from the event will go towards local student scholarships and various charitable initiatives. The performance will feature several interactive activities including pregame warm-ups for kids, contests, comedy acts, slam dunks, audience participation, and merchandise giveaways. The event will conclude with a dance party on the court.

Founded in 1962, the Harlem Wizards have played over 15,000 games nationwide and have raised more than $25 million for schools and charitable causes.

Tickets are available for purchase at the door, but advance purchases offer the best pricing and reserved seating options. For more information and to purchase tickets, visit the official website link [here](https://www.harlemwizards.com/tickets/salisbury).
