Community Service Club is coming at you with another event for students as well as faculty to help our community – an Indoor Snowball Fight on the last day of classes! This event comes with a surprising twist though.  Instead of snowballs, we will be throwing new socks!

We know that everyone loves a good snowball fight outside in the cold winter, so why not participate in one that’s indoors to blow off some steam before finals week? Most importantly, your participation will help the Braintree community, as all of the socks purchased during the event will be donated to Father Bill’s and Mainspring Homeless Shelters afterwards. Many homeless people only have one pair of socks to keep them warm during the cold winter. Participating in our Indoor Snowball Fight is one way to get a lot of socks to those who need them while having a lot of fun!

The club raised money to cover the cost of the event through the sale of tickets and socks during lunch time in front of the cafeteria from November 28th to December 4th.  The price was $5 for 7 sock balls and $10 for 15.

The Indoor Snowball Fight will be held at 11 AM on December 7th in the gym. You can watch the event for $1. Snacks will be offered for sale at the event, so bring your cash!

Hopefully your house will have stocked up many snowballs for the fight! Houses will create cardboard forts for the event this week and fight together as a team.  The more participants on your team, the greater your chances of dominating the snowball fight! Points will be awarded to the house with the best fort.

This will be the first time ever for this event, and we can’t wait!

We’ll see you there!
