When I originally signed up for 6 hours, I did not think I would be able to complete the time. However, I actually found it very therapeutic and relaxing just walking a picking up everything I could find. I really felt so happy afterwords because of the benefit that I had made on the community.
I spent a lot more time on the trails than I originally intended to on Saturday. As I was picking up trash, I felt like I was doing the community and environment such a big favor that I just wanted to keep going and going. It was also a beautiful day, so it was not difficult to stay outside at all. This service project made me realize how much I enjoy doing work for the community, and I will definitely be signing up for more projects when the opportunity arrises. Also, I picked up much more trash than substance abuse trash, however, I forgot that I was supposed to take a picture with the trash so that's why I just have photos of the individual bags that I collected already in the dumpster.
Pi Phi 5K! I helped cheer on all of the runners and set up tables before the race began. The runners benefited from this because they were not alone during any portion of the race. There were pi phis around every corner to cheer them on!
I donated clothes for the beautiful lives boutique drive.
I donated cans for the food drive.
I got vaccinated!
Thank you for taking so much time out of your day to get out and help! I wonder if all the trash on the ground at the smoothie shop came out of a dumpster with the aid of a raccoon? Glad to hear it was beneficial to you too. :)
