Community Caravan - 9/26/08
Arthur & Warrick on “Community Caravan”
The Grizzlies set out on a Community Caravan to three separate elementary schools throughout the Memphis area on Friday, September 26 to teach kids about the importance of education and fitness in their everyday lives. Grizzlies forwards Hakim Warrick and Darrell Arthur were along for the ride that stopped at Southwest Elementary School in Fayette County, Riverdale Elementary in Germantown and Center Hill Elementary in Olive Branch.
At each stop Arthur led the students in a Get Fit Assembly where he and students took part in exercises and a question and answer session about the importance of health and fitness. Warrick played a different role, as he was given the distinction of “Principal for the Day.” Warrick visited classes and made PA announcements at each school before distributing backpacks and signing autographs with Arthur for the students.
