10 years of playing football. The camp was three days long and ran for a couple hours each day. It felt good to give back to the community and the kids that will play for the teams that I played for. I am also a part of my school’s National Honor Society, and we take part in many service projects throughout the year. My personal service project was teaching a group of freshmen how to work out.

This past summer of 2016, I have dedicated my time and effort training and volunteering as a lifeguard and have spent countless hours doing something where I could have otherwise been paid.
