Chicago Blackhawks staff members came to Wharton Today!

GOAL—go out and learn   The Blackhawks National Hockey organization chose Wharton School as one of the schools to visit and put on a G.O.A.L. (go out and learn) clinic.  They sent out four employees (coaches) to spend one hour with two separate groups of students on Monday, October 28th, 2019.  The coaches showed the students how to properly hold the hockey stick and how to safely stickhandle (move the ball with control).  The second skill was learning how to get past a defensive player with success.  Lastly, the students/coaches played a game.  They rotated in in “lines” as they do in a real hockey game.  It was extremely exciting for the students.   The students really enjoyed the clinic and were given Blackhawk pencil/ruler kit for being participants in the clinic.  The Blackhawks organization donated some hockey balls, hockey sticks, hockey pinnies, and two small hockey nets.   Thank you so much, CHICAGO BLACKHAWKS  ! ! !

All students and staff working together to create something bigger than ourselves. That is what we strive to do every day! The big creation event should begin around 12:30 on Thursday if any parents, family, or community would like to come and watch it unfold. THURSDAY ALL WALKER STUDENTS WEAR GREEN
