Aries Apparel Launches High School “Ambassador Program”

PORTLAND, Ore. - June 3, 2014 - PRLog -- Leading Women’s athletic apparel, footwear and specialty gear retailer, Aries Apparel has launched an innovative “Ambassador” program with area high schools.

The “Ambassador” program is being coordinated with area Athletic Directors.  The AD’s were asked to nominate female athletes at their schools who best exemplify the characteristics of an Aries Ambassador, which include leadership, participation in either multiple sports or sport at a high level as well as commitment to academics.

The program empowers female athletes to not only represent their schools and show pride, but it also gives Aries Apparel valuable input on what female athletes want and need to succeed in their sport.

“We have wanted to launch a program like this for some time.  We feel it gives another tremendous scholarship opportunity to local female athletes as well as helping us connect deeper with them.  A win-win,” said Diana Marsden, owner of Aries Apparel.

The program is being put in place now, with Athletic Directors submitting nominations for Ambassadors who will begin their ‘year’ in the fall.  Each candidate will complete an application and interview to represent their school for each calendar year.  Each senior Ambassador will be able to compete for an Aries Apparel Scholarship at the end of their commitment.

Those Interested in Application:  Can also contact Aries Apparel directly by contacting Laurie Bailey, Director of Community Relations at (503) 806-2027 or at LaurieB@AriesApparel.com
