Another idea would be to get a program developed that will help the city parks. and get the kids involved with keeping them up. That would include planting trees, picking up trash, and painting the buildings and play sites.

Another suggestion would be that every grade, K-12, be involoved in some type of volunteer program appropiate for that age group. Teachers could begin demonstrating how the efforts they put into that program will benefit others, and the environment in positive ways.
