Do Your Best, Never Quit continues

Buffalo Silverbacks News Release


Buffalo, NY. Here's what Beth A. Anzalone, Sr. Prevention Specialist for the WNY United Against Drug & Alcohol Abuse, Inc (WNY United) had to say about the ABA Buffalo Silverbacks "Do Your Best, Never Quit" program.

"This letter is to commend Mr. Modie Cox and Mr. DeRon Rutledge for their "Do Your Best, Never Quit" presentation. Both players presented a great discussion and motivated topic to our High School Student Athletes who attended CAMP ACHIEVE - Athletic Camp that Heightens and Improves the Experience and Value of Education. The camp was held at Buffalo State College. This camp is designed for students who have been identified as "promising athletes" who could benefit from academic, SAT support as well as Life Skills presentations.

Their message was well received and provide a springboard for further discussion during the rest of our camp. I highly recommend their presentation and the mission of the Buffalo Silverbacks. I look forward to seeing their new season get underway. You have two quality young men playing/working for your organization. I want to thank you again for the opportunity of having these players present to our young athletes. Again, their message is contagious. I wish you all the best."

Do Your Best, Never Quit life seminars teach youths to focus on the effort they apply to a situation rather than the result. It's not about the win or loss; it's about believing in yourself and doing your best. The Buffalo Silverbacks would like to give special thanks to Creditors Interchange for supporting the Do Your Best, Never Quit initiative.
