COLLEGE PARK, Ga. - The College Park Skyhawks and CareSource, proud partner and mission-driven Medicaid plan serving more than 500,000 Georgians, announced today the Skyhawks' annual Education Day game, presented by CareSource, will take place on Thursday, March 2 at 11 a.m. at the Gateway Center Arena. The Skyhawks will be taking on the Greensboro Swarm in the early contest.

The Skyhawks and CareSource will be hosting students and staff from local schools, with CareSource donating 250 tickets to students and faculty of Atlanta Public Schools. Attendees will receive a themed workbook for the game, as well as thunder sticks donning the Skyhawks and CareSource logos.

"The annual Education Day game is something we look forward to every year," said Atlanta Hawks Vice President of NBA G League and 2K League Operations Janice Koon. "With the help of CareSource, we are excited to bring the fun of great basketball and unique learning opportunities to local students."

CareSource will sponsor in-game elements, including a skills challenge at halftime where school administrators will compete for a donation to their school's mental and physical wellness resources from CareSource and the Skyhawks.

"We are looking forward to engaging with students, faculty, and families from Atlanta Public Schools," said CareSource Georgia Market President Jason Bearden. "Education plays a vital role in informing important health decisions, and we are proud to sponsor Education Day with the Skyhawks."

The Education Day game will be the second Skyhawks event presented by CareSource, after the 'Back to Basketball' event held in the lead up to the 2022-23 season at Welcome All Park in College Park on Oct. 1, 2022.
