Community+Service

**Community Service**

**2009** Over the summer i participated in the Emerson summer rec camp. It involves working with kids from the ages of 4 to 11. It was from 8 in the morning to 3:30 in the afternoon and 5 days a week. It was a lot of hard work but in the end it was worth making the kids have a fun summer.

**2008** I participated in the same summer camp as 2009. Also, In 8th grade there was a class called Civics. We learned about helping out the community and being a good citizen. At the end of the semester we had to do a community service project, my project involved me going to a childrens C.C.D. school and help be a teachers aid for 3 days after school. Doing things like helping the kids read words or getting them colored pencils really helped out the teacher. I really enjoyed helping out everyone.

//I plan to do even more community service and try helping others out as much as I can.//
