Two benefits . . . two good causes!
And they're off!
Yesterday saw two benefits held here. Actually, that is not entirely true. One was in Foxborough.
Thanks Friends of Mike Madden
That would be the Revolution game vs Seattle. “The Friends of Mike Madden” organized a group of local soccer fans to attend in support of Mike Madden, coach of the MHS boys varsity soccer team. Mike went through some back surgery that did not go so well. And there are quite a few people eager to see him get clear this hurdle that has been put in front of him. They showed up at the Revs game in support of Mike. Coach Madden was introduced to the crowd at Gillette stadium before the game.
Madden coaches teams at all levels all over the place. In addition to the boys teams at the high school, there are Milton travel teams and a club team and who knows what else. He’s a coaching machine . . .but he is not a machine. He is a honest, passionate guy with high standards who wants to see a successful program built in Milton. As it happens I bumped into Coach Madden yesterday afternoon on my way to drop off some baked goods at the other benefit that took place yesterday, the MHS Walk-a-thon. He was perched in the MHS parking lot that overlooks the lower playing field at the high school watching a Milton traveling soccer game of course.
PS – the Revs won for coach. They prevailed over Seattle 2-1 on a goal from Sharlie Joseph in the 87th minute.
As for the Walk-a-thon, what a gorgeous day! The Walk-a-thon to benefit MHS sports and activities took place under clear blue skies and crisp autumn air at Brook field.
The MHS Boosters had the concession stand open; FAME and FAVA, the music and art support groups, had a bake sale going, and slowly a sizable crowd began to congregate, waiting for the whistle to walk and honor the pledges they received.
At 3:00pm they commenced. They proceeded under an arch of red and white balloons led by Asst Superintendent Phelan, assorted faculty (and Tinker Bell!) to music performed by the MHS band and with the MHS cheerleading squad encouraging them on. Laura Kessler and her team did a fantastic job in organizing the event.
All hands on deck! MHS Walk-a-thon needs your support!
The MHS Walk-a-thon to support school activities that will be taking place this Saturday @ 3:00PM at the high school rain or shine, NEEDS YOUR SUPPORT . . .
How? Well, a couple ways. First, sponsor a student walker. If you don’t know one, go up to the school Saturday and find one. Trust me, there will be someone who would be glad to have YOU as a sponsor for, say, $10.0 0r whatever amount you are comfortable with.
Or – can you bake? Of course you can! The various activity advocacy groups have been asked to coordinate a bake sale. These groups include FAME (music), FAVA (visual arts), Drama, and the Boosters (sports). So make some cupcakes, cookies or muffins etc (ideally, nut free) and bring them up to the school and drop them off between 2:00 and 3:00.
