Island Trees Students Help Through Training and Mentoring Program
The Island Trees Athletes Helping Athletes (AHA) had a busy school year in 2010-11. In addition to their annual training and mentoring program they provided additional services to our schools and some local organizations.
Some of the year’s highlights include: visiting a local home for aging people during the holiday season bringing gifts and warm smiles; raising money for (WIN,) holding a fund raising AHA tournament for a local family; supervising and running activities for three different Field Days; participating in Team Adventure Day at Stokes, Dr. Seuss Field Day at Sparke, and 5th Grade Field Day at the Middle School.
They finished the year with a field trip to watch the NY Mets play the California Angels. The Mets are sponsors of the AHA program and provide seats to thank the members for the fine work they do.
