You ready for some football?
by Bob
Early September is a special time in Wisconsin. Our beloved Green Bay Packers are the only community-owned franchise in professional sports, and with over 20,000 shareholders, this state lives for football. Here at Easter Seals Southeast Wisconsin, we are totally dialed into our 13-Time World Champion Green Bay Packers!
And as if the Packers aren’t enough, this Sunday a unique clinic will kick off with one of our more storied local football teams: my alma mater, Marquette University High School, will host over 50 children with autism, their siblings and parents for a Football Clinic.
Simply put, it is just a great afternoon where kids can be kids practicing their running back moves, tossing the pigskin for touchdown and practicing their touchdown dances. The environment is warm and welcoming, allowing families to just enjoy a day together. Here are some pictures from last year’s event.
Want to join us this year? We’d love to have you! Just link to the Easter Seals Southeast Wisconsin calendar for more details. Thanks to the mighty Hilltoppers for making a special day for some special families in Southeast Wisconsin.
P.S. GO, Pack, go!
