Hello all (men's and women's team members):
I received the following e-mail below from Matt Francis, who is our Academic Fellow in the Student-Athlete Enhancement Center. He's a good man and an excellent advocate and supporter of our program (not to mention a star lax player here before his graduation earlier this year!).
Anyway, I am part of the Enhancement Center team, and they are great folks who really do a lot for Marist athletes. Part of what they do is to get Marist student-athletes involved in community service. As a result, here are some community service related items that Matt brought to my attention. If anyone is interested, let me know and we'll get going on it.
Thank you in advance for strongly considering it.
From Matt:
Through our Champs/Life Skills program we want to increase our student-athletes' involvement in community service throughout the area. I have listed below some upcoming dates and events in which we would love to see some of the team participate if possible. Even if you can't fulfill all of the needs in terms of numbers for a particular event, any help makes a difference! Please let me know if any dates are workable!
September 17: ARC Picnic 11am-1:30pm - Picnic for adults with disabilities, need 15-20 student-athletes to go, serve food, interact, possibly participate in some games, and help out.
