Green, a star receiver, shared his experiences as an athlete at an event at the Boys & Girls Club of Greater Cincinnati on Glenway Avenue. Green led the kids in a series of physical activities, and then took questions from the children. He also presented a donation from the Rockin’ Refuel company to the Boys & Girls Club.

Veteran cornerback Hall and other teammates took 25 kids toy shopping as part of the Toys for Tots program. The kids were from the Children’s Home of Northern Kentucky.

Uniformed Marines were on hand at the Toys “R” Us in Kenwood to help the kids pick out the toys.  The Marines then loaded the toys in a truck and took them to the Children’s Home.
