'Rock the Rim' event hosted by the Sioux Falls Skyforce in partnership with Trevor's Legacy Foundation

Here is more on Trevor's Legacy Foundation, its history, and mission:

Trevor’s Legacy Foundation was founded in honor of Trevor Torkelson, a Kadoka Area High School student whose life was taken due to a drunk driver in 2015. Torkelson shared a passion for children and sports, specifically basketball and was an avid Michael Jordan fan. His compassion and impact in the community shaped Trevor’s Legacy Foundation, which was designed to help improve the quality of life for others. The foundation specializes in assisting children with substantial medical needs.

It's all for a great cause and provides our community with a great source of entertainment that benefits families that face medical hardship resulting from children's medical needs.

The autograph session for the event will be from 5-5:30pm. It will include mascots, Charley Jenkins, dunkers, entertainers, as well as Skyforce players.

Additionally, the first 500 fans in attendance will receive red and black thunderstix with the logo for Trevor's Legacy Foundation.

Doors open at 5 pm and the event begins at 6:00 on Saturday, October 29th at the Sanford Pentagon. For more information, visit the official site of Trevor's Legacy Foundation.
