Dolphins help out storm victims
- Share via
The Huntington Beach Dolphins Jr. All-America Football and Cheer
raised $500 toward relief efforts for victims of hurricanes Katrina
and Rita, the local chapter announced.
Donation buckets were placed at the snack bar and practice fields,
with league families generously donating.
Members of the Clinic Division cheer team donated from their own
piggy banks, Clinic cheer coach Tracy King-Wenschlag said.
One of the chapter’s football teams donated $80 from a recent
garage sale it held, King-Wenschlag said.
The Dolphins’ board of directors matched the money raised during
the fundraising effort to bring the total to $500.
King-Wenschlag said that the league presented the money to a local
chapter of the American Red Cross on Tuesday during practice at
Huntington Beach High.
