PRINT: News Wednesday,May15,2013 •£« BOSTON: Students help bigger community Continued from Page 1 This project is a large one and the students in the group are putting a lot of their per sonal time into making-it hap pen. Why did they decide to do this project instead of* some thing simpler? “We originally wanted to put a solar* panel ray on the house of a needy family; but then two weeks into the term the Boston Marathon eveht happened,” said Matic. “We basically saw that peo ple needed help and funds, and we just changed our gears and put all the effort towards helping those people out.” He continued, “We are doing it to show national com munity and to show that even though Boston is on the other side of where we are, it’s still. -our duty as a national com munity to help each other out.” Matic isn’t the only student on the team that feels obli- gated to help beyond the local community. They all feel the same way, including Michael Malmberg. “It’s everyone’s responsibil ity to help those in need,” 'said Malmberg. Other activities at the event will include a paddle race, live acoustic music, potato sack and egg spoon races for kids ii We basically saw that people needed help and funds, and we just changed our gears and put the effort towards helping those people out.” Antonio Matic Business student and blackjack for adults.
