CLICK HERE TO CHECK OUT OUR BROCHURE

As our semester draws to a close so does our service-learning project. We have presented to our class as well as spent a day presenting to our fellow students in Gaige. It was great hanging out around campus and talking to the people that stopped by and were interested in our work. We hope that what we did this semester goes forth into our community and helps to better our environment.

Our finished brochure also came out of this project and is awesome if we do say so ourselves! Please check it out and consider volunteering on the trail!

 

Team KACS – Visit to the Trail – November 8, 2015

On Sunday, November 8th, Team KACS went to the Schuylkill River Trail. We spent two hours clearing a portion. We picked up some trash and were surprised to find that it was not as littered as we thought. We spent the majority of the time clearing low hanging branches and overgrown shrubs from approaching the trail. We also got a lot of information for our brochure that we are working on for the organization. All in all it was a fun day helping the community!

Volunteering at the Schuylkill River Trail – Nov. 2, 2015 – Team KACS

We are planning to visit the Schuylkill River Trail this weekend to volunteer and clean up the trail. We are hoping to further gather information to add to our brochure so that when people volunteer, they know how to prepare, what to expect and how they will go about the day. We are looking forward to volunteering so that we can help our local area and also we are excited to get photos for our brochure!

A brochure to assist volunteers on the trail (Team KACS) 9/28/2015

We are going to make a brochure that clearly defines the positions and duties of the volunteer leaders and volunteers themselves. We are thinking about making it available to the public on the Schuylkill River website as an interactive brochure as well as a brochure to be printed and reused. Our brochure will be used for groups of volunteers that are working for two hours and will describe the day’s activities, dress, what to be prepared for and how to prepare for the day. We will also be planning a volunteer day ourselves to see how the day goes, take photos and gain further insight.
