On
August 25, 2007 volunteers from the Verizon TelecomPioneers, Wm. J.
Denver Chapter's Providence Club supported the
2nd annual C.A.S.T For Kids Day held at Roger Williams Park in
Providence R.I.
The recipients for this day were from A Wish Come True. Inc.
(www.awish.org).
Pioneers supplied food and drinks for 200 attendees of the event.
Volunteers from the Providence Club purchased school supplies and filled
goody bags for each of the children. Other club volunteers took pictures
of the families and made them into buttons, which each child proudly
wore during the day. C.A.S.T. also gives each child a fishing a rod &
reel, tackle box, shirt and hat.
Pioneers took a picture of each child with their new fishing gear which
was mounted onto a trophy plaque donated by C.A.S.T. Although it was
extremely hot, 104 heat index, everyone had a great time and
Pioneers look forward to supporting this event in 2008. "It is an event
that will warm your heart", said Carol Baker, Providence Club President
and project coordinator. "To see the excitement on the faces of each
family as they experience a day of fishing together, receive a picture
of the days' event and their gifts from C.A.S.T and Pioneers, is more
than words can describe.
