The Potter Cup

Bretany Pilko, Neighbor

The Potter Cup is a challenge between Paxon Hollow Middle School and our own might Middle School Ford's teams. The wrestling team, the boys' basketball team and the girls' basketball team play matches/games against our Paxon opponents to win the coveted Potter Cup. 

Along with being part of the school spirit and cheering on our teams, students play games, purchase food, and win door prizes all while supporting a worthy cause.


Potter Cup is held, not for bragging rights to see which team is superior, but to raise funds for Alex's Lemonade Stand. In the 7 years since the Potter Cup began the two schools have contributed over $210,000 to Alex’s Lemonade Stand.

The money is being used to fund a grant at Children’s Hospital of Philadelphia.  This year we will continue the tradition with Paxon Hollow on Friday, January 27, 2012.
