Student thrives as the cochair of Women’s Intersport Network for Kansas City’s Youth Advisory Board.
Senior Amabelle Palomares has tirelessly dedicated her time to Women’s Intersport Network for Kansas City. From being a Camp WIN team captain to co-chair of WIN for KC’s Youth Advisory Board, Palomares has put forth the effort and zeal needed to successfully volunteer with this organization. After discovering Camp WIN on Sion’s service board as a freshman, Palomares took an interest and liking to the organization and decided to find out how she could get more involved beyond her 100 required service hours. “Amabelle does a great job of leading and organizing the Youth Advisory Board. You can tell she is very passionate about WIN for KC and its mission,” fellow board member sophomore Angela Neunuebel said. On the Advisory board, Palomares attends monthly meetings for about three hours a month where
she participates in mock interviews, coordinates the organization’s yearly events and meets with women from male dominated fields. These meetings are not only useful for planning WIN for KC’s events, but also benefit Palomares and all the girls involved, providing them with resources and real world experiences. “I’ve learned so much about marketing and getting my name out there and have gained a lot of much needed connections and knowledge about becoming a leader through WIN for KC,” Palomares said. Camp WIN empowers young girls by introducing them to over 14 sports such as rugby and wrestling. Team captains teach the girls how to play each game while encouraging them in a safe and fun environment. Palomares also works alongside many other Sion students at Camp WIN over the summer to help girls in the community learn about the value of teamwork and sports. “I have really enjoyed getting to know the girls and Amabelle better this year,” fellow board member junior Maggie Keller said. “Amabelle has been a great leader to the board. As chair, she has shown a great side of leadership.”
