At the event, celebrities will be teamed with corporate sponsors to test their knowledge in math, geography and science. Held at The Pageant in the University City Loop, the event includes auctions, raffle, dinner by the bite and drinks.
Proceeds from the “Back to School with Joe Buck Celebrity Bee” benefit KidSmart – Tools for Learning. Founded in 2002, KidSmart works to empower children in need to succeed in school by providing essential school supplies for them to learn. Through a free store for teachers, the basics such as crayons, loose leaf paper and scissors are available to economically disadvantaged youth.
