Douglas Track Team Hosts Food Drive During Girls Basketball Game

The Douglas Track team is turning game night into an opportunity to give back by hosting a food drive during the girls basketball game on December 19.

The game tips off at 5:00 p.m., and fans, families, and community members are encouraged to bring non-perishable food items to donate. All donations will support local families in need, helping make a positive impact close to home.

To add a little extra motivation, the team set a fun goal—if enough food is collected, the athletes will earn a well-deserved day off from practice. It’s a lighthearted incentive that highlights the team’s strong work ethic and commitment to service.

This initiative reflects the values of Douglas Track, showing how student-athletes can combine teamwork, generosity, and community spirit. By supporting the food drive, attendees can help the team give back—and help them earn that day off they’ve truly earned.
