It was a fun-filled evening at the Community Toy Drive Basketball Game to benefit the Premont children. It took place Thursday, December 12 at the High School gym. The Premont ISD Staff went up against the Premont Law Enforcement.  

Those attending the event were asked to donate an unwrapped toy for their admission to the friendly hoops game. The toy drive is the latest example of the positive impact PCISD has on the students and the rest of the community. 

PECA, Baby U, PMA, CIS, Premont Volunteer Fire Department and the Premont Police Department spearheaded the effort and united for the drive.  

Santa Claus and the Grinch were in attendance watching school and community influencers hit the court for a basketball game while supporting a great cause.  

The concession stand was open for those with an appetite. And there were plenty.  

They say that holiday initiatives like these are very important to the community. Thursday night, Premont came together to make a difference and have a ball.
