Blazer’s Edge Readers and Portland Trail Blazers fans, we need your help. Since 2006, we’ve been conducting our annual Blazer’s Edge Night, sending kids in need to see the Trail Blazers play when there’s virtually no chance they’d be able to swing tickets on their own. Donated tickets from our readership forms the core of the experience, but it’s so much more than that.
The tickets themselves range from $11 to around $24. That’s not a huge expense for most of us. For many of the families we’re talking about, it is. Our participants come from schools and organizations in economically-disadvantaged areas.
