BOONE, N.C. – For Appalachian State track & field student-athlete Cameron Hunter, the slogan "Make an Impact" is engraved in his mind. Every day, when Hunter prepares for track practice or puts on a track & field shirt, he sees the slogan.
Hunter, a sophomore sprinter from Mt. Tabor High School in Winston-Salem, N.C., has been collecting water bottles for those affected by Hurricane Florence with the goal to "Make an Impact."
The idea to help others in need came from a conversation with Caitlyn Brewer, a fellow resident assistant in Bowie Hall, as the storm was close to making landfall.
