Methacton Junior Serves as Cheer Coach, Role Model

In honor of National Volunteer Week, Patch is taking a look at local volunteers in our communities. 

Methacton High School Junior Sammie Davenport has been a junior coach for the Methacton Warriors for the past four years, willingly donating her personal time to help the cheerleading squad.

Sammie helps to run a cheer camp in the summer and volunteers several nights a week and at least one day each weekend to help coach.

As a member of the Methacton High School Varsity Cheerleader, she never misses a game, practice or competition, according to her mom, Jennifer Maaskant.

"Over the past two years she has cheered at a high school football game and then has immediately driven to Temple afterwards to cheer on her Warrior team," said Maaskant.  "She would never let them down... I think for a junior in high school that could be doing so many other things, she has become an incredible role model to so many girls."
