VAST Activities: Field Day

On May 1, 2013, VAST had a Field Day to give our mentors and scholars a chance to have fun together. The scholars had the option to play kickball, play basketball, do gymnastics, or play board games with the Vassar students. Plus we all enjoyed freeze pops! It was a great way to build community and celebrate all the talented athletes we have at VAST.

Check out the pictures below! And expect more events like this in the fall of 2013.
