MEGHAN KEOUGH: Over the last few months, our team has had some amazing opportunities to outreach to the community. By far, the most rewarding community service event was last Sunday when we volunteered at the Komen Race For the Cure. It was right here on campus and a few thousands of students, professors, and adults in the area ran the race.
The 5k run proved to be no match for Coach Brown, who prides himself in 26 mile marathons......FOR FUN.
Haha! We all think he's crazy, but it was inspiring to see so many people united in a cause.
Our team was able to interact with the kids there. We had a tent set up with prizes, face painting, and games. I definitely got so much out of seeing our team together at an event like this. Coach Starkey's wife, a breast cancer survivor, was there with us all morning. We are so blessed to have that kind of strength and perseverance in our UCF family. Last Sunday was such an eye-opening experience and I'm looking forward to doing more events like that with our team! :)
