Another one of my 2010 goals is to volunteer more. An opportunity came up at church to help with check-in for our Upward program. So each Saturday for the month of February I was lucky enough to get to hang out with 300+ kids. It was rewarding to interact with them and their parents each Saturday. I can’t even tell you how much fun I had hearing how their games went and what their favorite part of the game was.
No matter what I had going on in my world, listening to a little one beam about the goal they shot or how they remembered their cheer perfectly, made my day! And to know that our church is helping bring sports/cheer to some families that may not have otherwise been able to play is icing on the cake.
I look forward to being a bigger part of the program next year. Maybe one of these years I’ll try out coaching for the cheer teams! We’ll see how brave I get!
Here are a few photos of the games—aren’t the little cheerleaders super cute!?!
