Grandma’s Sports Garden -Volunteer Appreciation Party
Last night I stepped into Grandma’s Sports Garden for the first time. I have been to Grandma’s restaurant by Miller Hill and in Canal many, many times, but never to the Sports Garden in Canal. It was a really big place with a great atmosphere and I know a lot of college students go there once they turn 21 and can get through the doors. Volunteering is a great thing to do for the community, and it is also beneficial to you because not only does it make you feel good, but it helps your resume as well! Grandma’s Marathon broke records this year, and one of the coordinators started tearing up because of how thankful he was for us volunteers. I didn’t even do much compared to those that have been volunteering for 20+ years, but being involved in any way, no matter how small, makes me feel even more connected to my community, and I am so glad to have participated the past three years. I don’t plan on stopping any time soon, either!
