Courts For Kids Blog: Jamaica
UO student-athletes recount their trip in June to build a sports court for a small community in rural Jamaica.
Keira McCarrell of the Oregon track and field program and men's golfer Kevin Geniza recount their experience on the athletic department's annual Courts for Kids trip, to Jamaica in late June.
Kevin: Everyone who went on this trip can agree: We signed up to build a court to impact and transform the people, the kids, and a community. But we definitely experienced the flip side of that, because we were transformed by the bonds we created among the Jamaicans.
