Buccaneers Accepting Applications for 2011-2012 Student Ambassadors

The Buccaneers are currently accepting applications for the 2011-2012 Student Ambassadors program. Buccaneers Student Ambassadors (formerly Student Advisory Board) was formed in 1999 to connect Tampa Bay’s youth with the Buccaneers’ community outreach efforts. The program is entering its thirteenth year of service in the Bay area and is looking to continue its tradition of giving back.
 
The Buccaneers are looking for 40 intelligent, energetic and motivated students entering their sophomore, junior or senior years from high schools in West Central Florida. This select group will perform community service projects, create spirit in local schools and develop leadership skills in preparation for continuing education. Members will also attend all Buccaneers home games, working half of the season as customer service representatives in the East and West Club Lounges and enjoying the other half as fans from the first two rows in the end zone. During their one-year term, Ambassadors will also tour the team’s training facility, learn from distinguished guest speakers at monthly meetings and participate in charitable events as representatives of the Buccaneers.
 
To apply for the 2011-2012 Buccaneers Student Ambassadors program, please visit the “Community” section of  www.buccaneers.com. Applications must be submitted online and are due by Friday, June 10. For more information, call 813.870.2700 ext. 2274.
