Athlete Appreciation

Name:    Meghan L. (Residence Coordinator)
School:  Queens College email:   [email removed]

Description:

Surprise the athletes on your campus by dedicating a day to celebrate their hard work on the field,or court as well as their academic successes. 

Make personal signs for every athlete in your building, and decorate their doors with streamers and signs.  Photocopy signs that say "Hug an Athlete Today" and post them all over campus.  Alert professors and all other campus personnel so that they may add to the festivities.  That evening hold a "Cheesy Awards Banquet" for your athletes and give them silly awards on bright yellow paper with holes cut out of it (to make it look like cheese). 

Instructions/Things Needed:

Creative minds, art supplies for signs, organization, a caring campus community

Other Considerations:

Be sure to plan this day well in advance and inform coaches, professors, and College staff.  It will make the surprise even more exciting.
