2. For my fourth quarter Citizenship Homework,
volunteered at a park near my house. The park has
been around since I was young, and I felt that
Citizenship Homework was a great way to help give
back.
3. While helping out at the
park, I planted a tree
and ripped up some
weeds. The
maintenance crew of
the park does not have
time to do all the work,
so that’s where
volunteers step in.
4. As this was an
organized event, there
were plenty of people
helping out at the park.
There were lots of
flowers planted, and
trees and bushes were
circled with mulch.
5. With so many people
using this park, it
needed to be cleaned
up. People walk
through, play at, or
drive by the park
daily, so it’s important
that the park looks nice.
Volunteers can help
make sure their parks
are in order.
6. After the people did
their part, there was
food and drinks for us
all to enjoy. My favorite
was the tomato pie!
7. People cannot underestimate the importance of
volunteering. Communities thrive upon it. Do your part
to better the neighborhood you live in!
