Gratitude for a successful Senior Project

| March 22, 2013 6:00 AM

Recently I completed my Senior Project which was a soccer clinic for those with special needs followed by an exhibition soccer game to raise funds for the Special Olympics. I want to thank everyone who supported this project and helped make it a success. Many of my teammates showed up to the clinic as a volunteer to help with the participants. These same teammates plus many more as well as football and boys soccer players turned out for the exhibition game. We had a number of fans in the stand to support the fundraiser and I more than exceeded my goal for money raised for the Special Olympics. I especially want to thank Christy Dieringer who has been my mentor for this project, Lake Bowl who donated medals to give to the clinic participants, Havoline xpress Lube who donated money for tshirts, Papa Johns Pizza who donated pizza for the soccer game participants and Grocery Outlet who donated cases of water for the clinic and the game. But I most especially want to thank the clinic participants for a fun week and giving me the opportunity to share my love of soccer with them!
