1. Choose a community issue with your team:
- Clean Parks. In every community there are parks – a place where people of all ages can gather to talk, exercise, play and learn. Often though, parks can be neglected or not taken care of. Trash may litter the ground and playground equipment may become broken. The result? The park loses its beauty and even safety. Just like we must clean up our bedrooms after we play, we also need to clean up after we play in parks.
- Care for animals. If you have a pet, you know how important it is to take good care of your animal. Pets depend on their owners to help them stay healthy and safe, feel loved and get good food. Animals that don’t live in our homes need care as well – like pets who are not adopted yet and animals that live in the wild.
- Bicycle safety. When it’s a beautiful day outside, nothing is better than riding your bike – whether you are with your friends or family. Accidents can happen, though, when we are not being safe. These include injuries that could have easily been prevented with the right gear and by paying attention to your surroundings.
