We cannot adequately express our appreciation for the collective volunteer efforts of our staff, alumni and parents in supporting our Program. We've been fortunate to have a great group of people involved. Thank you. Like most organizations however, it tends to be a small percentage of our total stakeholders. You don’t need to be local to help and everyone can find a little way to make the program stronger.
Just recently:
- One alum who now coaches a high school team called to ask for PSU Summer Rugby Academy brochures so that she could mail one to each member of her team.
- Another e-mailed us to say that the Fort Collins, Colorado High School Coach is a good friend and that he'd welcome the opportunity to have his players learn more about Penn State at the upcoming HS Tournament.
- A third works for a firm that is hiring and offered to get any interested applicants processed into the company's employee referral system.
- Yet another offered to scout and recruit any events in Northern New England and wondered if a contact she made 4 years ago, was still with the team---He is.
- Still another alum followed up on a talented high school recruit coming to Penn State to make sure he got the right information about the pre-season camp and knew how to make contact with the coaches.
