We are excited to be bringing a very
special opportunity to the Whitman-Hanson community. WH Athletics has partnered with Independence
Associates to bring the Rolling Celtics to our school on Friday May 3rd
at 6:30pm. This organization plays
wheelchair basketball and these athletes are very impressive.
However, the real benefit of this program
is to give our students an opportunity to gain a sense of empathy for those
living with disabilities. Our students
will be impressed with the courage and determination of these athletes. The program includes a demonstration of how
wheelchair basketball is played and everyone in attendance will be offered the
chance to participate. The coach of the team
will teach our students and other adults how the game is played.
Admission is free but donations will be
accepted.

hope to see you there!
