All-star football The annual Silicon Valley Youth Classic Charlie Wedemeyer High School All-Star Football Game returns for the 28th time this summer. A talented crop of graduating high school seniors is set to play in this year's game on July 24, 7:30 p.m., at San Jose City College. The Almaden Valley Rotary Club sponsors the football game each summer, with proceeds going to the Rotary charity and scholarship programs. The Wedemeyers, Charlie and his wife, Lucy, are expected to make their appearance at this summer's game, greeting players as they are introduced prior to the game. Wedemeyer is the former Los Gatos High School football coach who has Lou Gehrig's disease, also known as ALS. Despite the effects of the debilitating disease, Charlie and Lucy have gone on to create the Charlie Wedemeyer Foundation.
