Day of Service

For this week’s campus safari I decided to participate in Southern’s Day of Service. We were put into teams and bused out to various locations all around New Haven. My group was Natalie, Amber, Erica and her lacrosse team. We were assigned Whalley Ave where we walked down it cleaning up trash. We had huge trash bags and we ended up picking up a lot of trash. Overall it was a good experience. People would come and thank us for cleaning up and a lot of people really appreciated what we did. It ended up being a really fun day and it felt good to give back to the community.
