About:
This winter we piloted a community service program where each of our teams signed up to work concessions for another program. This allowed our concession stand to be open more frequently and during events that sometimes haven’t had concession stand service. This has increased revenue for our sports boosters and that money comes right back to our athletic programs. This has also helped our student athletes with some real world skills—interpersonal communication skills, handling money, etc. In addition, this has promoted a bond between our teams. Sometimes we all get sucked in to our own worlds and this was a great way for our student athletes to connect with those outside of their own team. We will continue this program in the spring, as well.
