 IT WAS AN EVENING OF LAUGHTER and good will at the Falls Church Community Center last Friday night, the second annual fundraiser for F.C.’s Tinner Hill Heritage Foundation in recognition of Black History Month.

A basketball game pitted the hilarious and talented Harlem Magic Masters against a roster of local celebrities, including City Manager Wyatt Shields, School Superintendent Dr. Lois Berlin, City Council members Hal Lippman and Dan Maller, and two stars of the George Mason High School boys basketball team that reached the regional finals this year, Joel Chandler and Jake Johnson.
