Seasons Greetings Kings fans! It’s been awhile since you’ve seen a SKDT blog.
It’s been a very busy season for us so far. Since the Home Opener, we’ve had a lot of home games, practices and appearances in the community.
While many of you see us performing our routines on the court, some of our favorite memories take place off the court. Giving back to the community is very important to Maloof Sports & Entertainment and we feel very blessed to be a part of it.
Every year before Thanksgiving, we donate our time to Loaves and Fishes. It’s humbling to spend time with the families in need and share in the good memories on the special day. During our visit, we load up and serve plates full of mashed potatoes, turkey, gravy, stuffing and all the Holiday fixings. Don’t forget about dessert. We have that covered too! Pumpkin and pecan pie… mmm! Everyone that attended the turkey dinner left with full bellies, fond memories and reasons to be thankful.
Following the Thanksgiving feast, we had another annual appearance at Shriners Children’s Hospital, which is our favorite to attend every year. We love being able to put a smile on the childrens’ faces. In that moment of happiness, it seems as if they haven’t had a worry in the world and have gained a friend in us. Sometimes we have to hold back the tears because it gives us even more reason to be thankful for all we have.
More recently, six of us performed for U.S. troops at their Holiday party at McClellan Air Force Base. We looked quite festive in our Santa-inspired dresses, which made the crowd go wild! It’s a great feeling to be able to show our appreciation for all they do for our country. After the performance, we stayed to sign posters, take pictures and mingle with the squadron. As our parting gift, we all received a stuffed teddy bear. It’s small things like that that make us smile!
Even though it’s been a very busy season so far, we want to thank all Kings fans for all the positive feedback we’ve received. It inspires us to keep working hard and allows us to put in the extra effort in order to bring the best entertainment Sacramento or the NBA has to offer! We appreciate the voice our fans have had this year and really take it to heart. Thank you!
Until our next blog, we wish you and your families a safe and happy Holiday!!! Make sure to stay tuned for a special SKDT SURPRISE in the New Year!
