Service Learning Day 2011 Report

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
• Building Park Benches for the Conservation Department
• Helping at the Historical Society
• Aiding local Churches
• Entertaining and visiting Nursing Home residents
