Everyone I asked thought it was a good idea. I thought it would be a great way for the kids to share their talents with the community, that could, over time, be a fundraiser for the organization. |
Initially the idea was to give the kids that go home and watch TV after school something else to do. |
It has been wonderful having so many volunteers. Dana (Berger) has been just amazing at organizing the students. |
Many people think that all the kids (in Incline) come from affluent families - which is not the case. This is a chance for kids from all different economic classes and ethnicities to integrate. Once children are playing together they forget their differences - and so do the adults. |
We want the kids to be physically fit and learn good behavior, sportsmanship, respect for themselves and for others. |
