PITT-BRADFORD SOFTBALL, VOLLEYBALL TEAMS ASSIST CARE FOR CHILDREN

The Pitt-Bradford women’s volleyball and softball teams each participated in decorating the CARE for Children agency on Tuesday, Dec. 3. Under the guidance of head coach Tina Phillips, the student-athletes spent nearly two hours decorating.  The players broke up into groups, each with different duties. One group stayed upstairs and hung lights and ornaments on the main tree visible when children and parents enter the building. A separate group was responsible for decorating smaller trees that will stand individually throughout the building. A third group spent time downstairs entertaining some of the children on hand.
 
 CARE for Children is an agency that was founded in 1924 by local government, the school districts and area Rotary Clubs to better assist crippled children. The organization originally transitioned from the McKean County Easter Seals Society and grew into CARE for Children. The agency is currently working to make a difference in the lives of children in rural McKean County and the surrounding region. It has adopted the new slogan Building Campaign for the Future of Children of All Abilities.
 
 “We enjoy having a relationship with CARE for Children,” said head volleyball/softball coach Tina Phillips. “The players always enjoy giving back to the community, especially in the holiday spirit. This is something we will look forward to participating in each year.”
