Beale said there is a real need for student volunteerism in Athens-Clarke Saturday, and the younger Dooley hasn’t hesitated to draw from his father’s vast experience. “He’s been a good person to bounce things off of,” he said. “I think anytime it’s your first year you’re questioning whether what you’re doing is the right thing.
