What an incredible Community Service Day yesterday! Our students and staff were busy all over Nashville and Vermontville, making a huge impact on our local community.
Here is a quick look at what we accomplished together:
Total Impact: Our amazing volunteers completed 3 hours of community service across numerous local sites.
Cleaning Up: We collected 150 cubic feet of garbage and cleaned 4 total miles of road, including Mason Rd and Nashville Hwy.
Senior Support: We visited with a total of 120+ residents at Flower House and Thornapple Manor, where we washed windows, played card games, filled bird feeders, did crafts, and enjoyed some great visits.
Beautifying Our Schools & Town:
- Cleaned around 200 windows at the Jr/Sr High School and landscaped around the Central Office.
- Completed landscaping at the Putnam District Library, Parody & Riverside Parks, and Grace Community Church.
- Spread 20 yards of mulch, stained a gazebo, and painted two dugouts.
- Helped clean the Vermontville Cemetery and the Paul Henry Thornapple Trail.
Gardening: We planted a 100 x 50-foot garden at Hickey Farms, which will be used as a community garden in conjunction with the Vermontville Lions Club.
Creative Projects: We also assembled over 100 pinwheels, picked up pine cones for future craft projects, and planted new flowers.
We are so proud of everyone who participated in giving back to the community that supports us every day. Way to go, Lions!
