SU Volleyball Paints the Town

(9/18/06)  This past Saturday the SU Women’s Volleyball Team took advantage of an open weekend in the middle of their season to give back to the Kerrville community that so strongly supports the school and the athletic department.  The team took the afternoon for a community service project at the Doyle School Community Center in Kerrville, cleaning, painting and refurbishing the Center’s play area.  The Doyle School hosts after school programs for disadvantaged children of all ages, and also serves as a home for programs for adult literacy, ESL and job skills programs.

“We were scheduled to play in a tournament in Dallas,” said coach John Wyatt Greenlee, “but it fell through and we found ourselves with a hole in our schedule.  That provided us with a great opportunity to reach out and give back to the Hill Country community that gives so much to Schreiner.”

In addition to the playground refurbishment, the team plans to engage in a mentoring program through the Doyle School after the volleyball season is over.
