Raiders engage community during Training Camp

Community_thumb_072923

The Raiders are once again active off the field during the team's summer Training Camp operations. As part of the organization's ongoing commitment to the community, the Silver and Black set aside two days at Training Camp to host 12 local high school football teams (eight on July 29, four on August 6) and 30 community organizations (12 on July 29, 18 on August 6).

"It's important to us to do the right thing on the field, but also do the right thing off the field and in the community," said Raiders Head Coach Josh McDaniels. "This organization has always stood for that, and it's been clear to me, since I set foot in this building, that that's a priority. Being able to help those kids in this area, whether its equipment or an opportunity to witness us try to do our work. All the guys that play football know how much of a role model they become to our youth, and how important our game is to those kids. Anytime we can give back to them or help them in any way, that certainly has been a goal, it's been very clear to me since I've got here." 

Team executives and staff including President Sandra Douglass Morgan, as well as Raiders Alumni and Raiderettes, were on hand to welcome and engage with the groups and thank them for attending. This marks the third straight year that the Raiders have invited Las Vegas community organizations and local football teams to watch practice at Intermountain Health Performance Center in Henderson.
