What a day! The 2nd annual CHS Service Learning Day was again a success. With beautiful weather, nearly 800 students, and over 50 staff members, we certainly made a huge difference in our community. Among the many jobs we had throughout the community on this important day, we aided in storm cleanup -- helping residents on Staeger Road and picking up debris on Havemann Road. Our students learned a valuable lesson in the process -- serving our community can make a noticeable difference.
Here is a short list of some of our projects from 4-21-11:
- Storm damage clean-up on Havemann Road
- Storm damage clean-up on Staeger Road
- Trash clean-up on 127 (south), Mud Pike, Frahm Pike, on the Coldwater-Celina Bike Path and Franklin Township Bike Path, and in the Fairgrounds
- Hair Donations by 9 students and 2 staff members
- Car Wash fundraiser for the Red Cross
- Cupcake Sale fundraiser for the Relay for Life
