Yesterday, the Sports Unlimited team took to our warehouse (the one with the sweet sports gear) and set up stations with the help of Stop Hunger Now in an effort to make 10,000 meals for hungry children. This wasn’t our first time helping this organization, but as a competitive bunch, we aimed to work faster and do better than last year.
Here are some photos that I took of the event…

Proud of you guys!The Rumer montage continues with this focused shot of him pouring. You go Rumer!Dave goes reverse and rocks the hair net OVER the hat. That there is some stylish innovation to the original hat over hair net. What a twist!These guys don’t mess around. You can tell it from the backwards caps!Here we find Don “The Philosopher” Ball thinking deeply about something. Of what? We’ll never know.LOOK AT THAT TECHNIQUE.

Looks like not everything is making it into the bag…I put myself in harms way to get this shot. Was it worth it? Eh.Drew struts around demanding attention with his newsboy style hair net over hat.

We did good. We had fun. We’ve got pictures to prove it!

In only a few hours, in our warehouse at Sports Unlimited, we packaged more than 10,000 meals for starving people all over the world. Here are some photographs of our experience. Note the smiles!
