New Glarus- Monticello Volunteer at Camp Again!

New Glarus-Monticello Football Team Volunteers at Wisconsin Badger Camp

Wisconsin Badger Camp is a great way to get involved and volunteer.  On July 14^th the New Glarus-Monticello football team came up to camp and offered many helping hands.  Many work projects where completed thanks to the 45 members of the New Glarus-Monticello football team.

To start the morning the team split up into groups and participated in our camp programs. These programs consisted of playing a pickup game of football, making tutus and different arts and craft activities. In the afternoon the football team divided and conquered work projects ranging from clearing trails, putting up a new barn fence and general cleaning of camps buildings.

“With the help of the football team we were able to get so many work projects done at camp,” said Development/Communication Director Kayla Leibfried. “The team worked hard all day and helped make a difference at camp and in the lives of our campers,” said Leibfried.

At the end of the day the entire team, freshmen through seniors, posed for a picture with their coaches and some of the campers.  In addition, some campers were given shirts from the New Glarus-Monticello football team.

“Words cannot express the gratitude felt towards the New Glarus-Monticello football team and coaches,” said Executive Director Brent Bowers. “ It is great to see so many young men who are such great leaders and willing to do new and different things, like coming up to camp to volunteer,” said Bowers.
