Rodman CPAs Volunteer a Day of Service at Camp Clark in Plymouth

Rodman CPAs volunteered a day of service to "spruce up" the grounds of Camp Clark, an Old Colony YMCA sponsored recreation camp for children

Rodman CPAs, a full service tax and accounting firm serving small, mid-market, and multi-generational companies throughout the greater Boston area, recently volunteered a day of service to "sprucing up" the grounds of Camp Clark, an Old Colony YMCA sponsored recreation camp for children in Plymouth.

A long-time supporter of Camp Clark, Rodman CPAs' team of 17 spent six hours landscaping Camp Clark in preparation for the 1,000+ youth campers who will attend camp from the end of June to the end of August. The team, which included the firm's president Steve Rodman and partner Tom Astore, spread 40 yards of mulch, 20 yards of sand and also painted Four Square in the playground area. The Rodman team even wore their specially designed volunteer T-shirts while working on the project.

"The Y was founded on volunteerism, and employers like Rodman CPAs who encourage volunteering is why the Y can continue to serve so many families," said Derek Paiva, Executive Director of Old Colony YMCA.

The Rodman team spent more than 100 hours in readying Camp Clark, which according to Paiva would have taken weeks and a number of Y staff members to complete.

Paiva continued, "The Rodman team really does care and they do a great job. Having them working with us is just phenomenal."
