Our Chance to Give Back


Each term our team participates in a community service project. Past projects have included volunteering at the CHaD Half-Marathon - which benefits the Children's Hospital at Dartmouth (CHaD), cooking dinner for the families at David's House, and painting a local elementary school.

This term, we were fortunate to help celebrate National Girls and Women in Sport Day, by conducting a clinic at a local rec center. The event is called Girls' SportsFest and is hosted by the city of Lebanon (NH) Recreation and Parks Department.

On Saturday, Lexi Campbell '13, Alissa Santa Maria '13, Head Coach Ann Marie Larese and Assistant Coach Heather Somers hopped in a car and drove to Lebanon eager to share their love of volleyball and passion for the game with approximately 60 girls ages 3-12.


Basic individual skills such as passing, setting, serving and attacking were covered as well, and most importantly, the team cheer!


We'd like to thank Paul Coats and his staff at the Lebanon Recreation and Parks Department for hosting Girls' SportsFest and giving us the opportunity to give back to our community and share the game of volleyball.
