Much of the work involved raking leaves in yards and picking up remains from last year's growth. While the groups passed from yard to yard in a flurry. It was hours of work taken off the shoulders of those less able to handle the laborious chores.
Work started at about 8:30 a.m. and was set to continue into the afternoon. The students formed 25 crews to take care of 82 jobs in the three communities. The major event was made possible by a group of 30 staff helping organize and assist the youth.
