The Northern Michigan University women's lacrosse team, under the leadership of head coach Lindsey (LeMay) Majkrzak, volunteered at the St. Vincent de Paul food pantry in Marquette at 9 a.m. on a recent snowy Saturday to help sort and package can-a-thon donations.
Pantry manager Bob Barton said about 30 people from Northern helped out.
"Coach Lindsey has volunteered to help us for three years in a row now since I have been involved in this," he added. "The experience was awesome. They worked really hard sorting, assembling boxes, making up boxes and bags of food, and restocking shelves. We had a lot of fun. They played Christmas music and really got into it. It is a great team-building experience for them."
