Fish Week recap
This past week we had a three day service porject that took us all over to serve the community. We went to Serrv International to help promote fair trade goods from thrid world countries. We helped with a VBS at a church who ministers to a homeless population (we went to a water park too). On Friday we weeded the middle school, helped make planter kits, and made Happy Hats for kids battleing cancer and undering chemo. There was put out and tie dye too. There was so much service and fun packed into three days. What a blast.
Fish was a great experience, although I only went to two of the days I still feel like I helped a lot in our community and everyone around us. When we were helping at the Vacation Bible School It felt great to know that even though many of those kids are homeless they had a nice place to go, and that we could help them enjoy it. I also know a few of us bonded with the kids from Virginia to form fast friendships. On Friday working at the middle school may not have been my favorite activity but I feel I like we really helped out. So when school starts we can go up to some of our friends and say this summer I helped make the outside of the middle school better. So Fish was definitely a worthwhile and amazing experience.
