The challenges during this year's economic downturn are making things even tougher for some families in our Bolingbrook community. Fortunately, the young ladies of Panther Sports Club In House Volleyball program decided to help.
This past weekend during the programs first round of playoff games - teams supplied enough food and gift cards for 23 families to have a complete Thanksgiving meal. The teams brought supplies which were assembled and delivered by members of the Panther Board - Christine Buerger (In House Volleyball Commissioner) and Ron Dodd (SlowPitch Softball Commissioner). Nicole Donovan, 9, currently a team member on the Flash, said "It makes me feel warm in my heart to know that we are helping someone else".
