Fresh Air Fund

6/22/2007

This is not a volleyball subject but it is another interest that we are involved in: The Fresh Air Fund Friendly Town Program. We are having a visitor from NYC again this summer and hopefully two visitors for 2 weeks, July 18 to August 1st. If you are interested in hosting an inner-city youngster for two weeks in the summer, check out their website www.freshair.org. If you are not interested or unable to, please pass this on to someone who might be.

After a year or so, we archive the news items, but if you're interested in the Volleyball World history, here you go.
