May 26, 2010 - American Hockey League (AHL)
Worcester Sharks News Release
WORCESTER - Worcester Sharks President and CEO Michael T. Lehr along with Abigail Williams, the principle of the Law Firm of Abigail Williams and Associates, announced that the "Be a Leader" program will visit the Flagg Street School in Worcester on Thursday, May 27th from 12:45p.m. to 1:45p.m.
Created at the start of the 2007-08 season by the Worcester Sharks and the Law Firm of Abigail Williams and Associates, the "Be a Leader" program is designed to provide students in grades 4-6 with leadership tips to enrich their lives as well as others around them. Sharks players, in addition to Finz, the Sharks' mascot, will be present at the school assemblies along with the principle of the Law Firm of Abigail Williams and Associates, Abby Williams.
Worcester Sharks rookie and Boston University National Champion alum, John McCarthy, will take the lead at the assembly, addressing the students about bullying and sharing his insights on being a professional hockey player.
"The kids have a lot of fun during the assembly," said Director of Community Relations Michael Myers. "It's not every day that a professional athlete and a mascot visit a child's school. It's a fun way to help guide students to make the right decision in every day life."
Each participant in the program receives one ticket to an upcoming 2010-11 regular season Sharks home game and a "Be a Leader" promotional item compliments of the Law Firm of Abigail Williams and Associates.
"My entire staff has really enjoyed being part of this great program," said Abby Williams, principal of the Law Firm of Abigail Williams and Associates. "I am excited about the opportunity to share my experiences with children and look forward for the "Be a Leader" program to continue its efforts throughout central Massachusetts."
