Albany, N.Y. – The College of Saint Rose
men’s basketball team recently spent a day at Harmony Hill
Elementary School in Cohoes, N.Y. to help the students celebrate
the start of a new school year.
Members of the Golden Knights squad helped promote the
school’s theme for 2012-13; “Be Safe, Be Respectable,
Be Responsible”.
The team conducted mini-basketball clinics in each physical
education class throughout the day and visited several classrooms
to answer students questions.
This event represents just one of numerous community service
projects that Saint Rose student-athletes complete every year. It
furthermore puts forth another example of how Saint Rose
student-athletes embody a major prong of the College's mission
statement to engage with the school's urban environment and thus
help foster a sense of motivated and caring citizenship.
