Activities / News (non sports):

• Have a wonderful summer !!
• The clothing classes are in need of buttons.  This is how you can help out.  If you find yourself tossing old clothes this summer, would you be kind enough to cut the buttons off?  We are especially in need of shank buttons (the ones with the metal circle on the bottom, they are often found on coats and shirts).  This will be a great way to recycle since many garments can be but up and used as rags once the buttons are removed.
