 Habitat for Humanity

Saturday, November 3rd: Many of Lincoln's student-athletes traded in their team uniforms for sweatshirts, jeans and tool belts (with tools) as they combined efforts to lend a helping hand to Habitat for Humanity. Most of the students had little or no experience with construction, but learned quickly from the pros and had a great time in the process. It was a win win situation for everyone, the student-athletes learned a great deal, had a wonderful time and Habitat for Humanity made lots of progress towards finishing a home.
