The initiative was called “Read Lacrosse America.” The student-athletes read “The Hard Hat for Kids” by Jon Gordon, an inspiring story that teaches children how to be a great teammate. The book teaches the “10 Ways to be a Great Teammate” and the “We before Me” philosophy. The assembly ended with a team building activity called the Rattlesnake Relay where children held hands and had to maneuver through a hula-hoop together.
