A group of Collinsville High School male athletes took time to visit Caseyville Elementary School as part of the “Real Men Read” project. The special event was coordinated by Caseyville Principal Chelsea Clark and CHS Assistant Athletic Director Clay Smith.
The CHS student athletes read books to children in classrooms, visited with students and even found time to hang out on the playground to demonstrate some athletic skills. Everyone involved — staff, CHS and Caseyville students — consider the event a success.
CHS participants were:
Ben Hunsinger
Will Henze
Sam Blaha
Kenny Lutz
Ryan Wilke
Joel Philpott
Hunter Counton
Joe Schrage
Tate Wyatt
Ruben Ortiz
Austin Gavlick
Benito Hernandez
