2nd Annual AQJH Day of Service
Junior High Cleans Up Grounds at Bayview YMCA

7th and 8th graders armed with rakes, shovels , brooms and gloves, made quick work of clean-up at the Bayview YMCA on Friday, May 28th.

The junior high students were charged with helping to prepare the Y grounds for the upcoming summer camp season. Teams picked up garbage along the trail to the bay, scrubbed coolers and the splash pad area, raked, weeded and pruned paths along the trail and volleyball area, and cleaned and stained shelters.

The group had a chance to reflect upon their labor, and discussed additional things they might do to be of service to others in the week to come.
