LACROSSE - MIDNIGHT RUN - NOVERMBER 11, 2004

On November 11, 2004, the Iona College Women’s Lacrosse team participated in their first Midnight Run, one of their many community service initiatives of the year.

As a team, they met at the Center for Campus Ministry, where they prepared sandwiches, soup and hot chocolate to be served to the needy. In addition the team sorted through donated clothes and blankets, which were also given out to the less fortunate on the midnight run.

Throughout the evening, the team, handed out food and clothing at numerous locations in Manhattan. This service project was a success and provided the Lacrosse team with the opportunity to help those most in need.
