Homegrown's First Day in Duluth

From Homegrown Lacrosse Blog

Today's classes were similar to day one of any Phy. Ed. unit but as always, they possessed a unique routine. I worked at Lowell Music Magnet Elementary School with Mrs. Bergerson and her student teacher, Mr. S. Chaun taught at Lincoln Piedmont and from what I hear, the kids loved it. Assisting me, was Alex McNamara, a junior attackmen on the UMD squad. In 2008, Mac worked as an LDP counselor at the first ever Homegrown Summer Camp I ever worked. In 2009 and 2010, I played against Mac, two times each year. Today, we were working to introduce our sport to the students in Duluth, with the goal of facilitating the continued growth of lacrosse in the area.

Day one is always interesting. Some of the kids are intently focused on observing every detail of the introduction, while the rest of the kids can barely sit still, impatiently waiting to get their hands on a lacrosse stick. Either way, our sport is growing with the one by one accumulation of ambassadors to the sport. For every student who has a great experience with lacrosse (especially for the first time), we've developed a constituency who will positively advocate for the sport.
