I have grown accustomed to carrying around a water bottle
with me at all times. It is very
important as an athlete to be sure that you are always hydrated and prepared
for the next training session. It is
just as important to improve health to maintain hydration daily. The Boys and Girls Club recently installed a
new water cooler, which allows the kids to have highly purified water directly
from a tap! It is quite and upgrade to
the typical water fountain. The only
catch is that the kids are required to provide their own water bottle to drink
the water. Many families are unable to
provide a water bottle or do not understand the importance of hydration.
ITA and L.L. Bean asked what could be done to benefit my
program at the Boys and Girls Club and of course the first thing I thought of
was providing the kids with water bottles!
I was so excited that just a week after asking for L.L Bean water
bottles they all came in the mail. It
seems like such a small thing, but it was really special to me that with the
help of L.L. Bean I was able to provide the kids with water bottles. The kids were so excited to receive their new
bottles and immediately put their names on it and went and filled them up. Thank you to ITA and L.L. Bean for keeping
the kids at the Boys and Girls Club healthy and hydrated!
