Students were joined by members of the Boston Celtics CommUNITY Crew and TD Bank Store Manager Sean O’Brien to show the kids a brand new, state-of-the-art technology lab on March 28.

West Roxbury YMCA Teens, staff and family members received free tickets courtesy of Dunkin' Donuts.
I can still hear the roar of the crowd as Lebron James fouled out of the game in the last seconds of overtime. At last night's Game 4 of the Celtics versus the Heat playoff series, the West Roxbury YMCA Teens erupted in excitement. On Friday, the West Roxbury YMCA received tickets from Dunkin' Donuts to sit in the Kid Zone. We were able to invite eight teenagers and 13 family members (some who had never been to a Celtics game).

But do the #4-seeded Celtics have enough to beat the heavily favored #2-seeded Miami Heat?
