Although we had to contend with a little rain for the day, the second Community Service Day of the semester went off without too many snags. Unfortunately, the rain forced the cancellation of four of the projects, so there were some last minute changes for participants' site assignments. The Youth Day Program, as always, was the most popular and the children that were able to come from Hartford were treated to a day at the Museum of Natural History, games with their UConn hosts, and a lunch provided by Subway and Domino's Pizza. Keep the Center for Community Outreach in mind when you start looking at classes for next semester. If you're interested in any of our programs and would like to work them into your class schedule, come to our office and meet with a staff member to discuss the times and days our programs run.
Transportation is provided.
Call the Center for more information. Mansfield Parks and Recreation was one of the work sites that was cancelled due to rain on our last Community Service Day. If this is a project you or your group would be interested in, please call the Center or Curt Vincente at 429-3321.
