About:
The Sweet Home Boys Lacrosse program is stepping up in a meaningful way—combining athletics and service to support fellow student-athletes through an upcoming Athlete Snack Drive.
Set to take place on Friday, May 8th at 7:00 PM, the initiative will be held during the team’s varsity game, inviting the community to contribute essential items that fuel and support athletes. The drive benefits the SHEF Athlete Snack Program, which helps ensure student-athletes have access to nutritious snacks before and after competition.
Community members attending the game are encouraged to bring donations such as granola bars, protein bars, pretzels, peanut butter, and Gatorade Zero, all of which play an important role in keeping athletes energized and ready to perform.
This effort highlights how student-athletes are not only focused on competing—but also on taking care of one another and giving back. By organizing and promoting this drive, the Sweet Home Boys Lacrosse team is reinforcing the importance of teamwork, leadership, and community support beyond the field.
Initiatives like this reflect the true spirit of education-based athletics—where programs create lasting impact by supporting both their teammates and the broader school community.
