With two buses filled with kids, parents, and coaches, Wednesday saw the elementary school summer program off to the Home Depot Center to watch Chivas USA face the Portland Timbers. After 90 minutes of riveting soccer, the end resulted with Chivas topping the Timbers one goal to none. Pandemonium ensues. I was there, loyal readers. And while the game was an entertaining one, I found much more pleasure in watching our students' faces light up as the men played their hearts out. For many of our students, this was their inaugural professional soccer game. Hopefully, these students left the stadium with a memory they can carry with them for the rest of their lives. This coming week will be the last for our summer programming. If you haven't already, feel free to come by and see the program every day from 12-4 at Palms Elementary School. Mondays and Wednesdays at Mar Vista Park from 12-2 to watch our alumni coaching team work with our middle schoolers. Tuesdays, Wednesdays, Thursdays to watch coaches Dre, Armond, and Marisha run the high school camp.
