(Herkimer, NY – Jan. 23, 2014) Members of the Herkimer College men’s and women’s basketball teams spent an afternoon during winter break at Herkimer BOCES and Herkimer Elementary Schools.
The student-athletes and coaches conducted anti-bullying presentations and activities with the students as part of the Athletic Department’s Adopt-a-School program, which includes visits throughout the year to local elementary and middle schools to promote education, teamwork and civility. Students learned about the perils of bullying and how to prevent it as they grow older.
