Our job at the Fun Run was to set up and manage the water station for the runners as well as clean up afterwards. This event was one of the most entertaining so far because I got to interact with many people, from preparing cups of water with other students to handing them out to runners and walkers as they headed towards the finish line. Again, working as a group for our community was fun, especially in this time of holidays.
The event was very, very nice. Not only did I get to help and cheer for the participants of the fun run, I was able to enjoy the beautiful aesthetics of the Trail of Lights. The event was a bit over whelming because of the number of people but it was managable. I enjoyed servicing.
I was able to put my social skills to use at this packet pick-up event for the Trail of Lights Fun Run. My job was to greet people and point them in the appropriate location to get their supplies for the 2 mile run that afternoon. I also answered basic questions about parking and starting time. Mostly I just enjoyed being able to volunteer for a position that simply required me to smile, be kind, informative, and helpful. In addition, I got to see the Trail of Lights before it opened, as all the food stands and stages were being set up. Overall, it was a fun experience!
I had a blast! It was so much fun and it was so great to get to see the lights before they open. I loved all the kids and families that participated.
I loved the community getting together in such a lovely event. The lights were amazing!
