Vice-President 1) Why did you decide to run for this position?
I decided to run for this position because as I have volunteered for Adaptive Gymnastics over the past few months, the program has become a part of who I am. I would love to become more involved with the program in any way possible, and I confident in performing the duties of Vice President such as running class and coordinating volunteers and new members. When Haley and Allen have been unable to run class, I have had the opportunity to lead class in their absence. I was able to successfully run the class because I have been around the kids so much so I knew the behaviors of each of the children and the activities they like to do. Also, I understand the format of how the class …show more content…
I know that is a huge responsibility, but I am willing to make the sacrifice because I want to be able to be as involved with this program as much as possible. This program has grown on me so much over the past few months that I want to volunteer every week. I remember when one of the first times I volunteered for Adaptive, I decided to go on a Saturday because I was unsure I would be able to wake up early for Sunday’s class. Fast forward to today, and I am eager to wake up on Sunday mornings to volunteer for Adaptive Gymnastics and I still want to go to Saturday classes also.

I remember walking to the seats after Adaptive did their performance, and Haley telling me that Emma wanted to see me. I walked over there and sat in the aisle beside the seats because I did not want to make Emma’s family have to move over a seat for me. Then, Emma got out of her seat and decided to sit next to me in the aisle. I was in a little shock because I just never realized how much of a bond I built with Emma over the weeks prior to that event. The next morning, I was running the class to prepare for the next week that Allen and Haley were going to be absent. I just remember I was looking around at all the kids to see how each one was doing, and all of a sudden I felt someone hugging me. I looked down to see that it was Emma. To say that I am happy to see how much our bond has grown over the past few months would be a huge understatement. As I have volunteered more and more with this program, I find myself building a connection with the rest of the kids, and it is why I would love to run this program one
