Former UGA Bulldog, Cass Colonel to share with kids at South Bartow Youth Center August 15

Former Cass High School and University of Georgia football standout, Richard Samuel, will be a guest speaker at the Bartow County Parks and Recreation Department South Bartow Youth Facility on Saturday, August 15.

Samuel, who now operates Richard Samuel Performance Training in Athens, GA was uniquely a two-way player in both high school and college. He also conducted summer youth football camps in Athens and at Hamilton Crossing Park earlier this summer. Joe Salvatore, Director of the South Bartow Youth Facility, said his guest speaker will get involved with the kids. "Richard will speak to the kids in attendance at 10am. He plans to talk about having a strong work ethic, making good grades, and other model character topics," said Salvatore. Admission to the event is free. The South Bartow Youth Facility Gym is located at 6506 Glade Road in Acworth. "Richard is also going to play dodge ball with the kids following his presentation. It should be a lot of fun!" added Salvatore. For more information, contact the South Bartow Youth Facility at 770-974-3255.
