BYU Sports Hero Day

Submitted by trisha.olsen on

Sixth-grade students attended Brigham Young University’s Sports Hero Day, on January 17, 2013. There they met with BYU athlete’s and volunteers who serve as positive role models to children. They talked to them about not giving up on their dreams. One athlete talked about everyday heroes, such as the people that keep our streets and buildings clean. He said it doesn’t matter what job you have as long as it gets done. Everyone of us is a hero. Students not only watched demonstrations but actively participated in various sports along with students from other schools in the local area. East Meadows wishes to thank BYU for providing this fun activity for their students.
