the cortland health fair?

so today, saturday, a day i was supposed to be able to have off and sleep in... ending up being drastically different then i had hoped for. i got the call friday afternoon that i had to go to the cortland health fair this morning to represent the hockey team, along with a few other guys. the reason me and my buddies were selected was because we are all from out of state, and i was supposed to be good public relations for the team and the residents of the community.

what we were told was that we would have to arrive at 10 am and stay until one, and that we would have a booth with a billboard and basically just sit and talk to the locals about college hockey, and how we all ended up at cortland since we're from across the country. this was not at all what happened.

when we arrived we found out that we actually would be at the other end of the field, playing games with the little kids who were there. even though this was fun, and good interaction, it was not at all what i or any of the other guys were expecting to do. it was a good time though, as we got to play football, soccer, tag and bowling with the little guys. i like kids, they are always entertaining.
