As the year comes to a close Kappa Sigma holds one last event with the help of the Delta Zeta Sorority. Kappa Sigma and Delta Zeta hosted their 8th annual Spikes for Tykes charity volleyball tournament that also featured a BBQ, DJ, and Slip ‘n Slide. All of the proceeds from this event were then donated to the Horace Mann School for the Deaf, which is the oldest public day school for the deaf in the country.
The weather was great this year, drawing large crowds and raising over $300. During the tournament teams of five competed against each other in a tournament styled play, involving members from all of Greek life, the Volleyball Club, and other students. Prizes were also given out to the winning team, the female and male MVP, and most spirited team. These prizes included gift certificates, I-Pods, and candy.
The Horace Mann School for the Deaf is located in Boston as a public school and was founded in 1869 and was helped by leading figures such as Alexander Graham Bell and Helen Keller. The Horace Mann School for the Deaf and Hard of Hearing educates all students by creating diverse learning environments that develop their full academic, social, technical and vocational potentials so that they can be lifelong learners, responsible citizens and active participants in both their deaf and hearing communities.
