About:
Southbridge athletes are committed to supporting a local organization known as Southbridge Holiday Visions, which plays a vital role in arranging the annual holiday decorations that embellish various locations in the Town of Southbridge. These decorations include life-size ornaments displayed on the Town Common, downtown, and other prominent areas.
Volunteers from the athletic community typically handle transportation to and from the collection and distribution sites. Some volunteers choose to stay at the workshop, where they assist in handling the delivered decorations, primarily involving disassembly and loading.
Moreover, they actively encourage the town’s youth to embrace and take part in Southbridge’s holiday traditions, with the hope that some may use their talents to shape future visions for the community.
Football, Girls Basketball, Track & Field, and Tennis student-athletes had the privilege of serving Southbridge Holiday Visions and assisting with their item collection.
