On October 20th I got to root on the players of Whitman-Hanson youth hockey. People often ask me why I take the time to do non disability in the community, and my answer is very simple. My brother was a hockey player for twenty five years and to me it is very important to remember where you came from. If I did not spend weekends at the hockey rink, I would not have such a close bond with my dad and my brother. Both of these men have been greatly supportive of my MWMA year and I feel like these kids are starting off where my brother was at one point. So, if I could be one extra voice to cheer them on as they score a goal, then I did my job.
Until next time,
"Advocate, Educate, Empower".
